MA
Summary
Education has been taught at Keele for over 50 years, studied from an international and multi-dimensional perspective, focused on its broader role and impact on individuals, communities and the world at large. Building on the success of our established MA in Education, the TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) pathway develops practical skills and techniques – such as classroom management and lesson planning – to support learners of English as an additional, second or foreign language. In addition to a Master's in Education, you will achieve the Trinity College (London) Certificate in TESOL, an internationally-recognised teacher training qualification.
**Why choose this course?**
- Keele is ranked top 10 in England (The Complete University Guide 2021) and in the top 300 globally for teaching of Education (The World University Subject Ranking 2022)
- Course develops robust understanding of theory, policy and practice in the UK and internationally with an emphasis on educational theory and practical experience undertaken on placement
- Opportunity to experience learning an unknown language, as well as plan and deliver language classes, teaching learners in the community and groups of visiting international students
- Engage with highly qualified, experienced academics, working at the forefront of their disciplines at home and overseas
- Excellent student support, supervision and flexibility, allowing the students to pursue topics of their choice in the final dissertations
Officially spoken in over 60 countries, English remains the most common universal language in the world and there are an estimated 1.5 billion English language learners.
With the English Language learning market predicted to hit $54.92 billion by 2027, our MA in Education with TESOL responds to growing demand for well-trained ESOL teachers.
Reflecting recent education reforms, you will delve into language learning theory and teaching methods, drawing on expertise of our staff developed in a variety of different contexts and countries - with the opportunity to put your teaching into practice with our international students or members of the local community.
In addition to a Master's degree, you'll have the opportunity to gain the professionally-accredited Certificate in TESOL, which is awarded by Trinity College London. Preparation for the moderation visit by the Trinity Assessor includes a minimum of six hours' teaching practice, though you have the option of also spending up to three months on an educational placement.
**About Keele**

Preparation for the moderation visit by the Trinity Assessor includes a minimum of six hours' teaching practice, though you have the option of also spending up to three months on an educational placement. This will present you with a unique opportunity to put yourself in the shoes of people who do not speak English as their first language and appreciate 'what it feels like' for them to learn a new language. This will enhance your practice and understanding of issues surrounding teaching and learning foreign languages.
Studying education at Keele is shaped by our strong focus – in both teaching and research – on the broader role of education in enhancing human development and how education is related to the economy, society and people’s lives, their opportunities and identities. This pathway is of particular interest to anyone seeking a career teaching English as a foreign language. It aims to develop exceptional teaching practice which positively engages learners and enables them to fulfil their true potential. It also provides an excellent foundation for further research or to pursue a PhD or a Professional Doctorate.
