I am teaching three courses in this Master of Science in TESOL Program, which
is open to qualified students from around the world. For further information,  visit

Course Descriptions

EDU 520 - Phonology for Language Teachers (4 units)
This course introduces students to key aspects of spoken English in terms of its
pronunciation. It covers the nature of English pronunciation, how sounds are
made, principles of transcription, the relationship between pronunciation and
spelling, stress, rhythm and intonation, and the teaching of pronunciation.


EDU 550 -
Classroom Management and Observation (4 units)
This course focuses on central issues and concerns relating to the effective
management of teaching and learning processes in second and foreign
language classrooms. In this course management does not mean the creation
of budgets and the creation of timelines, but the creation of a positive
pedagogical environment that facilitates learning.

The focus of the course is on the professional decisions that teachers must
make in order to ensure that learning takes place effectively. Content will include
lesson planning; teacher talk, including the effective use of questions, the
provision of explanations and the use of feedback; classroom dynamics;
instructional groups, small group work, dealing with large classes, one-to-one
teaching, and learner-teacher roles; affective issues in the language classroom;
and classroom monitoring and evaluation.


EDU 570 -
Classroom-Based Evaluation (4 units)
The aim of this course is to introduce students to classroom-based evaluation.
This is a critically important area for all those involved in curriculum
development, program management, and, in fact, any area of educational
leadership. The overall goal of the courses is to give students the skills in the
design and evaluation of a program of the student's choice.
