Summary

In this part-time, fully online course, you’ll develop your skills in teaching English for Academic Purposes. You'll focus on how academic English is taught and explore different approaches within the field. Alongside this, you’ll look at the wider context, examining politics and cultures within higher education as they relate to understanding and teaching academic communication.

You’ll build on your research and analytical skills, as well as your linguistic and intercultural knowledge, allowing you to develop as a practitioner. Throughout the course, you’ll collaborate with others, developing your teaching practice and your ability to research and engage in scholarship about your practice, contributing to the field through your work.

Study the course that suits you – with our flexible course structure, you can choose to work towards a certificate, diploma or a Masters qualification, starting in September or January. This postgraduate diploma (PGDip) course allows you to explore the same range of modules as the Masters course, but without a scholarship project in the final year. You could also choose to enrol on individual modules.
