Overview

The TESOL MA offered by University of Brighton will teach you in specialist facilities that replicate the environments found in schools and you’ll experience varied placements in school.

English teachers guide their students through a world of literature, language and communication, helping them to express their ideas clearly and appreciate different perspectives through reading and writing. This subject can inspire a lifelong love of reading and empower students to find their own voices.

You will graduate from this course equipped with the skills and knowledge to become a confident and competent secondary school teacher.

As well as gaining a PGCE, you will be assessed against the national Teachers’ Standards in order to be recommended for the award of Qualified Teacher Status.
