Master of Teaching - Secondary (080834F) at University of Wollongong: Tuition: $24,624.00 AUD/year (Scholarship Available)

The Master of Teaching (Secondary) is for university graduates from non-teaching courses who want to become secondary school teachers (Years 7 to 12). On completion of this degree, students will obtain a formal qualification making students eligible to teach specialised subject areas to students aged 13 to 18 in public, religious and private schools.

This degree produces high quality teachers with an understanding of diversity in the classroom and with strong connections to school communities.  

This program focuses on building teaching skills through a professional experience immersion program in their very first session, and regular professional experience periods throughout the degree. Students will complete 60 days of professional experience (PEX), including the option to complete one PEX in a rural or remote area of NSW. There are also opportunities to undertake international immersion programs that, while not counted as a PEX, allow students to travel overseas, visit schools and develop their understanding of people and cultures.

Students’ learning will be supported by online teaching, forums, podcasts and video streamed lectures, on-campus tutorials and in-school activities. Students will benefit from the expertise of local teachers and a range of workshops to develop their skills in communication, technology-enhanced learning, working with parents, designing assessment and conducting school-based research.

During their degree students will explore the concepts of teaching and learning to build their professional skills in their selected teaching areas. Teaching areas include: English, Mathematics, Science, Visual Arts, Music, Modern or Ancient History, Geography, Society and Culture or Aboriginal Studies, Legal Studies and Business Studies or Economics.  The methods offered are subject to demand, meaning that not all methods are guaranteed to be offered each year.
