What studying English education involves

Programmes of this kind usually cover the English language in depth: its grammar, structure, and usage, alongside the study of literature in English. You also develop teaching skills such as lesson planning, classroom management, and student assessment. The goal is to prepare you to teach English confidently and effectively at the junior and senior high school levels.

How hard it is to get a place

This programme is less competitive than many other degree programmes. That means the number of qualified applicants is not as overwhelming, and students with good passes in English and related subjects have a realistic chance of gaining admission. As always, you should check the university's specific entry requirements to confirm that your grades qualify.
