Advanced communicative competence in English, equivalent to level C2 of the CEFR.
This subject is aimed at future teachers of English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) so that they may become familiar with basic teaching strategies for teaching English to teenagers and adults in institutional contexts and acquire basic knowledge and skills to help them continue to improve as teachers of English throughout their professional lives. These goals are based on the following learning objectives:
Regardless of the language certificates handed in at the pre-enrolment stage, students taking this subject are reminded that on completing all course requirements they are eligible to be English teachers, meaning that they need to be strong language models for students. Students who enrol in this subject are expected to be able to express themselves fluently, accurately and appropriately in English - in terms of grammar, vocaulary and pronunciation - in everyday situations and in all situations related to the teaching profession (debates, reports, oral presentations, classroom management, etc.). They should also be able to read and comprehend informative, literary and professional texts without difficulty.
This Master’s Degree is aligned with European policies and guidelines promoting plurilingual competences. For this reason, it is expected that students display a receptive, appreciative an open attitude to the use of languages other than English in this course, whether known to the student or otherwise.
The methodology of face-to-face sessions will combine lectures and teacher-led activities with student-led work, pair-work and group-work, presentations, debates and project-based learning. This requires active participation on behalf of students and the sustained use of English. English is the language in which the great majority of teaching and assessment activities will be carried out.
Annotation: Within the schedule set by the centre or degree programme, 15 minutes of one class will be reserved for students to evaluate their lecturers and their courses or modules through questionnaires.

In order to pass the module it is necessary to meet the following requirements:
In order to pass Teaching English as a Foreign Language it is necessary to have passed each of the two blocks of contents that it is divided into. To pass each of these bocks it is necessary to obtain the grade of PASS in the accurate, fluent and adequate use of English. That is to say, to pass the module it is necessary to accredit:
Calculation of the overall grade of the module:
A full program will be provided the first day of class and through the subject's Virtual Campus. Each instructor will explain the tasks and evaluation criteria for the block for which they are responsible.
As a general rule, the final grade for the subject is the weighted average obtained from all the assessment tasks in the subject. Therefore, once the requirements indicated in the previous section have been met, the overall grade for Teaching English as a Foreign Language is the result of calculating the weighted average of each of the blocks, according to the relative value of each block, so that the Teaching and learning block hasa weight of 60% (54% for assessment tasks, 6% for participation) of the final grade, and the Innovation and research in the classroom block has a weight of 40% (36% for assessment tasks, 4% for participation).
Once officially communicated to students through the course program, assessment dates can only be modified by reasons of force majeure. If this is the case, the change of date will be announced through the subject's Virtual Campus.
Exceptions:
Review:
As well as communicating grades to students, instructors will also provide the date, time and place of review.
Appeals:
Requests for clarification or appeals about the grades received will be made in writing through the Virtual Campus in the mailbox created for this purpose. Students must use the form provided.
Re-sit examinations:
Students are expected to work consistently to pass each of the set assessment tasks. Students who have failed the individual activities will be able to take a global test to make up the block at the end of the course on the dates announced in the programme. Group activities are not able to be re-submitted.
