    COURSE DESCRIPTION
    This course is designed to familiarize practicing and prospective teachers of English as a
    second language with current TESL methodologies. Through discussion of characteristic
    ESL teacher/learner problematics and of pertinent linguistic phenomena, the teachers will
    be encouraged to develop lesson and unit plans according to strategies most suited to a
    specific classroom situation. Peripheral topics, such as culture and identity shock,
    learning dysfunction, mechanics of classroom management, and idiosyncratic
    linguistic phenomena, will also be addressed.
