Hi there
Am I right in thinking that a Masters in Education is the way to go if you want to teach at an International school?
A while back, I sent a post about obtaining a PGCE for the same purpose. However a few people have told me an MA. Ed is the way to go. My question is, what would I actually be able to teach with this qualification?
As I understand it, International schools do have ESL classes for non native speakers because they need to get to a level of English which will allow them to understand the English based curriculum. Am I wrong in thinking that?
Hypothetically, If they didn't have a ESL class, what then could I do with my MA. Ed if anything?
ESL is something i've been doing for three years and I think i'd be better off continuing with it. Just I want to do it at an international school. I know I could do an MA. ELT but what would be the advantage of that over MA.Ed and vice versa?
What do you all think? |
