  • DeadlineStudy Details: 1 Year Full-time 2 Years Part-time

Masters Degree Description

Do you want to become an English language teacher and teach in the UK and around the world? Are you fascinated by language and keen to use it to solve practical problems in the world and the workplace?  

Teaching English well is a skill that needs to be acquired, as it goes beyond the skillset of ‘native speakers’, requiring a strong understanding of the linguistic system, knowledge of how language is acquired and of different teaching methods, as well as an awareness of language use and associated ideologies. By fostering a critical awareness of these matters, this degree will equip you with the toolkit you’ll require as effective, inspiring and socially aware professionals within teaching and other professional and language-related sectors.
