MSc TESOL & Intercultural Communication
I liked the talented teachers and their respectful attitude towards students. I also admired how passionate they were about their specialist subjects. I felt that they wanted us to do really well in the programme and enjoy our studies.

Wang Zisu
MSc TESOL & Intercultural Communication
TESOL provides me with a brand-new view about education nowadays, including the tools of teaching and the methods of teaching. Learning more about education around the world inspired me to choose the subject.

Chenjiazi Xu
MSc Applied Translation & Interpreting
I have always wanted to be a translator or interpreter and in my opinion, I could improve my oral English and translation skills in the UK. If you want to take this course, my advice is to lay a good foundation and learn English and mother tongue well before you start taking this course, because you have to switch between the two languages a lot in class.
