Spanish is more than just a language. It is culture, art, tradition, values and a way of thinking and feeling the world
The Master's Degree in Spanish as a Foreign Language: Didactics and Research has a dual focus, professional and research, so that students can choose their path according to their future needs.
The programme responds to the growing demand for training that can be seen in native and non-native speakers who wish to improve their linguistic, cultural and teaching skills, as well as in graduates from other disciplines who wish to develop professionally as teachers of Spanish as a foreign language and have no previous knowledge of the language and its didactics.
The high percentage of employability of our graduates as teachers of Spanish as a foreign language demonstrates the quality of the training programme, backed by more than 20 years of experience at Nebrija University in the training of teachers and education professionals.
This official qualification offers the most up-to-date content and a wide range of subjects so that students can design their own learning pathway according to their training needs and professional interests. Contents and competences that respond to the new needs of the ELE teacher.
Nebrija University has as a partner of the programme Editorial Difusión, leader in Spain in the development of educational materials and resources for the teaching and learning of Spanish as a foreign language (ELE).

Arturo Moreno
Máster Universitario en Español como Lengua Extranjera: Didáctica e investigación
"Acumular conocimientos no garantiza saber enseñarlos. Es por ello que decidí inscribirme en el Máster en Español como Lengua Extranjera en la Universidad Nebrija, para aprender las didácticas más efectivas y aplicarlas con criterio. Además, esta universidad cuenta con el Centro de Escritura Nebrija, centro desde el cual se puede ayudar a aquellos alumnos que quieren mejorar su lectoescritura. La combinación de cursar el Máster en Didáctica de ELE y colaborar con el CEN me ha reportado una alta satisfacción personal, puesto que he mejorado mi forma de enseñar y siento que aporto a la sociedad."
