About GS TESOL

 In an era of increasing globalization and information exchange, the demand for English education is experiencing an unprecedented rise. In turn, more English educators are sought after around the world than ever before as proficiency in English proves instrumental in the effective exchange of information, as well as survival, in this competitive climate.

To meet such demand, the Hankuk University of Foreign Studies (HUFS), a university known for its leading role as a powerhouse of foreign language programs, established the Graduate School of TESOL (GS TESOL). The GS TESOL intends to nurture English teaching specialists who take proactive and pragmatic approaches to the application of theory, research, and development in the field of English language learning and teaching.
Additionally, the GS TESOL trains educators to develop various kinds of English educational content using information technologies and continues to push for fundamental research that will help accumulate and develop professional knowledge. Our exchange programs with prestigious universities around the world also offer students opportunities to experience studying in an academic setting overseas and to build skills that will enhance their current study as well as future personal and professional plans.

Ultimately, the GS TESOL aims to become one of the world’s leading graduate schools, making it possible for HUFS to serve as a hub for TESOL education in Asia.
