Career opportunities exist in Ghana Education Service, private schools, publishing and media companies, examination services, NGOs, and international education programmes.

Who this programme may suit

You will thrive if you are articulate, imaginative, well-read, and motivated to help learners find their voice. Patience, organisation, and an interest in literature and language structure are strong advantages.
