What the programme covers
Programmes of this kind usually spend roughly half your time on mathematics itself — algebra, calculus, geometry, statistics and probability — and the other half on how to teach it. You will study educational psychology, lesson planning, assessment methods and classroom management, and do practical teaching practice in real schools. By the end you should be comfortable explaining tricky mathematical ideas in simple terms and spotting where learners are struggling.
