Understanding of EAP students' needs, student critical thinking and student autonomy.
Skill in syllabus and programme development, text processing and text production, as well as in programme implementation and assessment practices.
The ability to manage, reflect and enhance your own learning.
Opportunities to extend your range of transferable skills, including your study and research skills.
