Would you love to become a proficient linguist, while also developing the skills and knowledge you need to become a teacher of modern languages or of English?
When you study the new BA Language Teaching and Languages, you will have the opportunity to learn up to two languages, from French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean and Spanish. You will study the science of how we learn languages as well as the theory and practice of how we teach languages effectively. You will also have the opportunity to practise your skills in a work placement, either in the UK or teaching English in one of the countries whose language you are learning - subject to availability.
If you decide to study one language on this course, you will ideally have reached at least A/S- or A-level or equivalent in that language before starting this degree. Then you will be awarded the BA Language Teaching and French, for example, if your chosen language is French.
If you decide to study two languages, you can study one from beginner’s level and the other from a higher level (from A/S or A-level or equivalent). You will be awarded the beginner’s level language as BA Language Teaching ‘with’ that language. So, for example if you decide to study Spanish at the higher level, and French at the beginner’s level, you will be awarded BA Language Teaching and Spanish with French.
Korean is only currently available on this course from beginner’s to intermediate level, so if you decide to study this language on its own you will be awarded BA Language Teaching with Korean. If you decide to study it as a second language at beginner’s level, for example with French as your higher level language, you will be awarded a BA Language Teaching and French with Korean.
Throughout this language teaching and languages course, you will increase your cultural understanding through options in literature, film, the visual arts and society. You will also be able to choose from our suite of linguistics modules, developing your understanding, for example, of how language is acquired, structured and used in social situations and contexts; or of the psychological processes involved in language production/perception.
If you opt for the Foundation Year route, this will fully prepare you for undergraduate study. It is ideal if you are returning to study after a gap, or if you have not previously studied the relevant subjects, or if you didn't achieve the grades you need for a place on your chosen undergraduate degree.
On the four-year full-time International Experience route, you will normally spend your third year at a partner institution to allow you to develop your language skills and your knowledge of the culture. There is a minimum language requirement of A2 for European languages when starting this course.
This course has an evening timetable with lectures, seminars and classes taking place in the evening. If you choose the International Experience route, this may differ during your year abroad.
