A Level English Language in Sutton Coldfield for 16 to 18 Year Olds

Who this course is for

English Language is certainly a subject very well regarded by Higher Education institutions, and because you are studying the thing that you will probably use the most in life your language it easily complements any educational course you might follow, and provides a new perspective on most conceivable professions.

At university, there is a considerable range of English related courses available, that directly build on one or more aspects of your work at A Level, from creative writing through to speech therapy. However, outside the wider school of English, your knowledge and skills will share ground with the many subjects within the social sciences, and particularly with Psychology, Sociology, and law-related courses. Even further afield it is not difficult to see the value of a sophisticated understanding of English in areas of design, business computer science in almost anything you could imagine, really.

When you come to begin a career, you will find linguistic study will make you an attractive, skilled and flexible employee in most services and industries. Whether it is the increased insight you can bring to analysing written or spoken language or your ability to control and shape your own communication, abilities of this nature will prove a real benefit to you. Even some of the specific topics you will have studied may find their niche: maybe the language and technology work you have done in Year 12 will give you an overview of the impact of technology as you start out as a software designer. Or, perhaps the language acquisition topic will help you get to grips with work in childcare and with very young children. You never know, you might even want to start teaching English yourself and passing your ideas on.
