This programme combines practical training in English language teaching with the academic study of language and communication. It leads to the securing of a teaching license from the Greek Ministry of Education as our graduates enjoy full professional rights which open up career opportunities in the teaching of the English language both in Greece and overseas for which there is an ever-greater demand. At level one, students take three broadly-based 'core' modules, and two further modules chosen from a wide variety of other disciplines within the School. At level two, students follow a more specialised programme of study with three core modules and two further optional modules chosen from a wide variety of other disciplines within the School. At level three, students take three 'core' modules, and they are then given a choice between doing a dissertation or doing a module on Translation.
