From current trends in language teaching to a comprehensive understanding of second language acquisition, this MA immerses you in all aspects of language learning and linguistics. We’ll introduce you to the latest approaches to linguistics research and reveal how these methods are being applied in the classroom. Developing a deeper understanding of every facet of language, you’ll analyse spoken and written discourse and gain experience of developing and refining language learning materials and assessment strategies.
The skills you develop will demonstrate your suitability for senior positions teaching English to speakers of other languages, as well as a variety of educational administration roles, in the UK and overseas. Your command of language could open the door to a career in publishing or journalism too. You’ll learn from a friendly and supportive team of active researchers who have international teaching experience. Our students consistently praise the support they receive. Social visits to local places of interest will be arranged to help you to get to know your peers and the programme team.

The programme is designed for teachers, teacher trainers, materials writers, researchers and administrators.
