Career & Opportunities

An MA degree provides a lot of career opportunities. You can start off your career as: -

  • an early years teacher
  • an elementary teacher
  • a middle school teacher
  • a high school teacher

Some teachers teach just one grade level and multiple subjects, while some teachers stick to one subject and teach different classes. All these depend on the grade level you choose to teach.

Many trained teachers choose to start with teaching to gain the necessary experience of the education process, and then continue their education with an advanced degree to further their career and get better compensation package. Since, now most schools require their administrators to have an advanced degree, a master’s degree such as this is required to secure administrative jobs as principal, vice principal, school coordinator, or superintendent.
