If you are fascinated by English language, linguistics, literature and creative writing, this course provides you with a wealth of opportunities to explore a wide variety of approaches to English. You’ll discover key linguistic frameworks as well as exciting and varied forms of literature, and have the flexibility to design your studies to fit your strengths, learning style and areas of interest. You’ll also have the option to study for the TEFLi, an important qualification should you wish to teach English in language schools both in the UK and worldwide.
