Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knows of any universities that offer a full time distance learning MA TESOL that can be completed in about 1 year?

Cheers,

Guy

I believe there are Aussie and/or NZ schools that will do this. USQ comes to mind.

He wants quick MA from a school that sucks 'em in and spits 'em out in a year or less.

So I gave him something to check into.

If the OP is comfortable putting a school with that reputation on a resume, then more power to him. It certainly won't hurt me in interviews.

Takes about 2 years mate.

Distance programs aren't usually FT.

Melbourne
Monash


Nottingham
Sunderland
Lancaster
Leicester

And so on.

Plenty of options.

Thanks for the info guys. I guess a full time brick & mortar program would be a better option. I wanted to try and save money by doing a distance program but it doesn't seem like it can be done in 1 year at any reputable universities. Just gotta suck it up and pay up.

I was going to start another thread about this, but we will see where this goes:

Can anyone recommend from personal experience a good distance learning MA program for either TESOL or Educational Leadership?

I am still torn between career options in both and I would like to compare universities that offer them.

Thanks in advance

Sorry, mate. The OP asked for one-year programs. Are you saying the USQ program takes more than a year, full time? I imagine one could do it in 5 years if they string it out. But that wasn't the question asked by the OP.

I know he did. And I don't think there are many, which is what I was pointing out.

OP - try this http://www.miis.edu/bethesolution/language_teaching
It is an ad for a 1 year MA from Monterrey. It was posted on the TESOL Int'l bulletin.

You could try MAT@USC (Masters of Arts in Teaching @ The University of Southern Cailfornia). They offer a full-time one year course that is offered online. Tuition is about 45,000 USD (Pretty expensive) but it is a reputable school. I'm actually looking into it.
