COURSE DESCRIPTION
This course provides an overview of linguistics as a discipline, its development, levels of structure, and its
significance to English language teaching. The pre-service English teachers will recognize the general
structural aspect of language (i.e. phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics) and major
theories of linguistics in language acquisition, psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics and other related studies.
With this, the course will help future language teachers demonstrate linguistic content knowledge and
application across other languages and use English competently to facilitate teaching and learning in the
future.
