Master's degree From my point of view nowadays the master’s degree is an integral part of higher education. Without this part it is incomplete, so to speak. During my studies at Master’s I expect to obtain in-depth knowledge in the field of foreign languages as well as learn more about teaching methods. As a student I always try to benefit as much as possible from university classes. I try to use every opportunity to increase the level of my knowledge and professionalism. I already have an experience in international exchange program but I don’t want to stop. At the moment I have a bachelor’s degree in teaching French as a foreign language. I decided to do a Master’s degree for several reasons. Firstly, because in the modern society it is necessary to have a Master’s degree to obtain a better job. Secondly, I have already obtained general knowledge in the field of pedagogy and now I want to develop my knowledge. And the main reason why I choose this major, I mean Foreign languages in the field of professional communication, is opportunity to practice language during internship abroad. That’s why I’m ready to work hard and even learn a new language if necessary. As for my graduate qualification work, it was about competitions in a foreign language as a way of increasing motivation. It was really interesting for me, because I’m going to become a teacher in the future and it’s very important to know how to motivate students, how to make learning process more interesting and how to increase the effectiveness of your classes. Actually, I already have some experience in teaching Russian as a foreign language. I like it but I also want to be a teacher of English and French. So I expect that Master’s degree program will help me to perfect my English and French in order to be able to teach people or to use these languages to teach Russian. Even excluding teaching profession I feel that foreign languages will be an integral part of all my future life. Lately I often meet people from all over the world and some of them inspire me, so my goal for the moment is to become fluent in both English and French. Besides, I really love travelling and knowledge of foreign languages provides new opportunities for me. I mean not only travelling but also employment abroad.
