Course Overview

Pursue your ambitions in languages and area studies with the MA Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages at University of York. Based in York, England, this Russell Group university offers a research-led approach to learning, with a 1-year full-time structure. This is an academic programme of study and not a teacher training course. Therefore, it provides a foundation in applied linguistics, approaches to English teaching and research methods on which later training in practical teaching can build. Theories of language acquisition and language teaching are explored, with the emphasis on how such theories may be practically applied; however, there is no teaching practicum as part of this programme. International tuition fees are £26,900 per year, home/UK fees are £12,000 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 6.5 is required for admission. Graduates from this programme benefit from strong career prospects, with 88% student satisfaction rating, a median graduate salary of £24,000 within three years, and a 95% continuation rate.
