MA Education Courses: Can I be Accepted?
Your QuestionI am a self-taught student with a bachelor's degree (average score: 73) in English. And I have 8 years teaching work experience. I plan to go on my study for a MA but I wonder if I could be accepted by any of the UK universities which are famous for education. Could you please recommend me some of them?
If you have good teaching experience and you have a good IELTS score (at least 6.5 but 7.0 or above is better) then you can be accepted by a famous UK university (even though your grade is well below 80%). UK Universities value good work experience.
You should also apply to less famous universities (chose 4-6 universities to apply to).
