Annotation
If you were already enthusiastic about William Shakespeare, Mark Twain, Ray Bradbury and others during your school years and saw English class as more than just boring vocabulary memorisation, you should consider studying for a teaching qualification in English. This degree course provides comprehensive knowledge of the English language, its grammatical rules, changes that have occurred over the years, English literature and a wealth of historical context.
