Bachelor of Arts in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL)

Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) opens exciting doors to the world of English and the community of international language teachers.

If you have an interest in teaching English in the U.S. or abroad with learners of all ages, augmenting your knowledge of effective language teaching theory and practice, or going on to graduate studies in TESOL, linguistics, applied linguistics, or foreign languages, consider adding a concentration in TESOL.

You will gain experience in the various aspects of the field, learn techniques to promote language learners' listening, speaking, reading, writing, and intercultural skills, enhance your communication skills, and discover whether a career in any aspect of English teaching, the field of ESL/EFL, second language materials development, program administration, research, international student advising, or employment in U.S.-based or overseas international organizations or educational institutions might be right for you.

Job Opportunity Potential

Worldwide recruitment in filling both short and long-term positions is essential to the realization of UIndy’s mission as a global university. Hiring a foreign national employee differs significantly from hiring a U.S. citizen and hiring units may need to obtain employment authorization before the individual can work in the United States.
