Welcome to the TESOL Methodology MOOC! This course is provided by the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC), as part of the American English (AE) E-Teacher Program. This program is sponsored by the U.S. Department of State, with funding provided by the U.S. government and administered by FHI 360.

During these 5 weeks, we will discuss different methodologies that will help you enrich your English teaching portfolio. In this course you will consider the cultural and teaching implications of English as an international language. You will explore various language teaching methods, approaches, and principles, and learn about learner-centered teaching.

This orientation is designed to help you get familiar with Canvas and how to get help. It is not mandatory, and it will open one week before the course. 

Module 1 opens on January 27, 2020 at 12:01 ET. All coursework must be completed by March 2, 2020. No late submissions will be accepted.
