Education and Teaching

Studying a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Education and Teaching is an excellent choice if you want to teach and inspire people of all ages and help them develop and be able to overcome life’s challenges and find creative solutions to difficult situations that arise in life.

Education and training is a multidisciplinary field covering aspects of psychology, sociology, anthropology, political science, economics, counselling, all forming the foundations on which your future teaching strategy will be built and implemented. You need to adapt this strategy to the needs of the students you work with.

Depending on your specialization, you may teach preschoolers, school children, teenagers, or adults. Everyone learns differently and you must adapt your methods to your audience to be a successful teacher. During the teaching courses, you will learn how to keep a class interested and engaged and how to mix theoretical elements with the application of newly learned concepts, as well as interactive group activities.

You will also be taught how to foster and enhance people’s natural learning abilities, how to create lesson plans and explain complex concepts. In addition, you will also discover how to listen to people and support them in their journeys of self-development or self-discovery. All of these skills will enable you to empower people and teach them how to learn, which is a very important process as they go through different stages of their lives.

Teaching is a very challenging career change and since there is a wide range of fields that require expert education and training, the range of careers you will find is quite broad. Here are some of them: teacher, educational consultant, teacher of English as a foreign language, learning mentor, counsellor, personal coach.
