Master of Education (M.Ed.)

About the Program

The Master of Education in Spanish equips students with specialist subject knowledge in the fields of Spanish literature, linguistics and cultural studies, as well as the didactic skills they require to teach this content to schoolchildren. This combination of subject specific knowledge and specialised didactics enables students to develop their confidence and abilities to become an informed and effective teacher. Any subject knowledge covered as part of the Master of Education is approached in relation to how it might be taught in the classroom. This is an important didactic element of the degree programme. This is complemented by practical language courses which aim to further develop students' active and passive Spanish language skills, as gained in the preceding Bachelor's degree programme with the teaching degree option.
