Navigating TESOL is a comprehensive, research-based resource which serves as a practical guide for students of Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) for the duration of their Master's or certificate program. It also serves as a resource for university educators and language teachers who wish to know more about key aspects of TESOL. Providing an accessible overview of the often complex issues and perspectives in TESOL, this book covers the pedagogical and linguistic knowledge crucial for professional learning at Master's level, summarises the major sub-fields, and explores recent and influential research that has shaped the field. Ideal for foundational courses in TESOL and certificate programs, the book features discussion activities, directions for new research, and typical assessment items.
