Masters Degrees Abroad

I am so thankful for my experience at Instituto Franklin-UAH. I graduated with a master's degree in ESL and Bilingual education in 2025. I would like to highlight a very special person, Iulia, who not only helped me succeed in the program as a young single mom, but who also helped me navigate some very difficult circumstances while far away from home. She did not hesitate to become an important part of our support system. I truly do not know where we would be today without her!

through Asian college of teachers i was able to complete my Bachelor of Education Course in the primary and secondary department. all the materials and guidance was provided well and clear updates were given

Thank you to this school for all the opportunities it provides, the excellent teachers, the great network to start with, for helping us make the most of Paris, and for inspiring us every day to be the best professionals we can be.

Having entered the art world with an undergraduate degree in economics and no background in art, MA Contemporary Art program provided me with an understanding of the fundamentals of art business. From understanding how social and political factors inform artists and art movements, to developing the skills necessary to engage with art in its variety of mediums, my studies have allowed me to speak intelligently about art, and most importantly, to learn how to respect what artists are trying to convey. This experience has taught me to look at art through a more informed lens.

I completed the MA in Contemporary Art in London. My time at Sotheby’s gave me both an entry point into and an understanding of the global art world. During my Master’s studies, I not only gained an incredible amount of academic knowledge, but was also introduced to the London art world and began building my career. In my work, I look at artworks all the time, and having the ability to critically assess and understand them is very important. The skill of visual analysis, as well as developing an eye, was a major focus during my studies, and I am glad that the tutors paid so much attention to it. We were constantly looking at different works and were expected to discuss them. We were also encouraged to go to exhibitions. You learn this skill as a student and then continue to refine it during your professional life.

I applied to Sotheby’s Institute of Art to learn more about the commercial art market and the business of art. I received a Master in Arts in Art Business at Sotheby’s Institute, and my courses included Art Law, International Art Markets, and Art Advisory and Collection Building. I also developed a Curatorial Thesis focused on Black Speculative Art theory, Afrosurrealism, and Afrofuturism. The MA Art Business program gave me a greater understanding of the different forces at play in the art market and how they work together for an artist and their career. It also made me more knowledgeable about the different art-related career opportunities available. Hearing from industry guest speakers, from Amy Cappellazzo to Jerry Saltz, exposed me and my fellow students to the different impacts professionals can make in the industry. It was empowering to be surrounded by professionals with various career experiences through our faculty, like Judith Prowda and Claude Grunitzky. We had a unique experience learning about art not only from a cultural and historical perspective, but also from a legal, financial, and market perspective.

I had been wanting to study art history at Sotheby’s Institute for a long time and had always been drawn to the Institute’s MA Contemporary Art. I eventually started with a short course, which gave me a solid base and the chance to delve into a subject I’d always been passionate about. I instantly loved the Institute’s teaching approach—placing students in front of artworks, encouraging dialogue, and connecting theory with real experience. After my initial course. I truly believe I could not have received a better education. I constantly recommend the program to others! The MA not only provided me with in-depth knowledge of contemporary art, but it also strengthened my critical thinking, offered a clear structure of how the art world functions, and introduced me to the wide range of professional paths within it.

I did the MA Art Business at the London campus because of its course reputation, faculty, and the depth and breadth of the program. I was looking for a course that would give me a broad but thorough introduction to the commercial art world. The MA Art Business program at Sotheby’s Institute inspired me to explore contemporary art, dream big, and nurture my confidence in international cross-cultural networking, which gave me the encouragement to find my path in the art business world. I would recommend this program to those with an interest in working in the commercial art world and collaborating with art industry players or to those who have an interest in collecting art.

My time at Sotheby’s Institute was deeply enriching, and a big part of that was thanks to the incredible professors. Their expertise, support, and ability to connect theory with real-world examples made the learning experience truly engaging and inspiring. I loved how the MA Luxury Business program covered a wide range of luxury sectors—from hospitality and jewelry to fashion and art—and explored the evolving definition of luxury across cultures and time periods. Being in London really enhanced the experience, as the city itself is a global hub for art, fashion, and luxury. I especially appreciated the immersive learning. We had the opportunity to visit incredible places like the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) in London, Rathfinny Wine Estate in Sussex, Van Cleef & Arpels School in Paris, and Mandarin Oriental in Milan. These experiences offered invaluable insight into how luxury is created, curated, and communicated in different contexts. In addition to the site visits, we were also joined by a range of guest speakers from across the luxury sectors, including areas like jewelry and hospitality, who shared valuable insights into their careers, challenges, and lessons learned—adding a real-world dimension that made the learning feel even more relevant and inspiring. I also really enjoyed taking electives from other programs—my course on art forgery, for example, was especially eye-opening and gave me a new lens through which to view authenticity in the luxury space.

I’ve been here for a term now and I’ve had such a great time. The classes are small and intimate, and you get hands on experience with teachers who are experts in their field (I am in a class of 4 students), whilst also having 1 hour and 40 minutes of Spanish classes everyday! It’s a great opportunity to learn Spanish whilst also getting a Masters in Business Administration. There are no courses like this!

My experience abroad was an eye-opening journey that deeply shaped my approach to teaching. I had the opportunity to observe and participate in classrooms with diverse cultural and educational practices. This allowed me to understand different learning styles, teaching methods, and the importance of adapting lessons to meet students’ individual needs. Beyond academics, I learned how education can bridge cultures and build mutual respect. Living and studying in a new environment helped me grow both personally and professionally, improving my communication skills, cultural awareness, and confidence as a future educator. I’m excited to bring these experiences into my own classroom and inspire students to think globally.

During the course it caused me to do have a clearer understanding of how the school is to be managed. Part of the management is discipline in the workplace and critical evaluation of issues faced in the school. Additionally, there needs to be a comprehensive view of curriculum and instruction, handling of crisis , evaluating teachers and teaching ,and lastly , the technical aspects of management. The course Masters of Art in Education and Administration has been one that has caused me to reflect on best practices and come up with solutions to improve on areas that are lacking.

I had a wonderful experience being education with the ACT. My level of knowledge in certain aspects increased and I also gained some new knowledge about others. I am now better equipped to deal with certain situations both in my teaching environment and surroundings. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to learn with you.

I recently completed my Master of Arts in Education with a specialization in Early Childhood and Special Education from the Asian College of Teachers (ACT), and it was an enriching experience. The course was well-designed, covering essential theories and practical strategies relevant to both early childhood and inclusive education. The flexibility of the online learning platform made it easy to balance my studies with other commitments. The feedback provided on assignments was constructive and helped me improve throughout the program. This degree has not only enhanced my professional knowledge but also boosted my confidence in working with diverse learners. I highly recommend ACT to educators seeking quality, flexible, and globally-relevant education.

I recently completed my Bachelor of Education in Pre and Primary Education with the Asian College of Teachers, and it was such a positive experience. Even though it was fully online, the course was well-structured, practical, and easy to follow. The lessons were relevant to real classroom situations, and I loved the flexibility to learn at my own pace while still feeling guided throughout.

Enrolling in the Master of Arts in Education with Leadership and Administration marked a transformative chapter in my professional journey. The program provided not only theoretical knowledge but practical tools to lead schools with purpose, equity, and innovation. Through deep exploration of organisational dynamics, strategic planning, and inclusive leadership models, I strengthened my ability to build positive environments for both learners and educators. I also cultivated a reflective leadership style, shaped by global perspectives and real-world challenges. This qualification has empowered me to think beyond the classroom. It solidified my vision to serve under-resourced communities and eventually establish an institution or NGO dedicated to educational equity. The program did more than advance my career—it awakened a calling to lead with compassion, vision, and resilience.

It was actually my first time doing a course on line but everything was very easy to follow. Thank you for the experience given to me during my time of study. I will use the kknowledge to better my teaching.

My experience at Tel Aviv University has been wonderful and unforgettable. As a mature woman with university education in both Italy and Switzerland, I deeply appreciate this opportunity. It is rich in learning, and I speak not only from an academic perspective but also from life experience. It was my dream to study at the Faculty of Medicine, and this Master’s in Disaster Management allowed me to fulfill that dream. Beyond that, it enabled me to understand the critical importance of managing emergencies and disasters. The wealth of knowledge I gained and the experiences I had—including field exercises like search and rescue training—will be incredibly useful and remain unforgettable. I highly recommend this university. If you are looking for excellent teaching in a welcoming, multicultural environment full of experiences—and all set in the beautiful backdrop of a city that captivates you with its stunning beaches, vibrant nightlife, and rich history—Tel Aviv University is the perfect choice.

Studying the Master’s Degree in Finance at Masaryk University has been one of the most enriching experiences of my life. The program provided a strong balance between theoretical frameworks and practical applications, helping me deeply understand core topics such as corporate finance, financial analysis, accounting, and international economics. The professors are knowledgeable, supportive, and always willing to engage in discussions that challenge your thinking. I particularly appreciated the diverse classroom environment, where students from various backgrounds brought different perspectives to financial topics. Beyond academics, living in Brno was a unique experience. The city is student-friendly, affordable, and culturally vibrant. I also had the opportunity to work part-time, which allowed me to gain real-world experience and apply what I learned in class. Overall, this program not only helped me grow academically and professionally but also personally. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to broaden their financial knowledge in a global context. Thank you, Masaryk University and Econ MUNI.

Thank you for your kind words and good luck with everything!

My time at the faculty of economics was definitely a good one. After arriving in a new country, I needed some time to warm up but, fortunately, I know some Czechs who kindly included me in the Czech life and culture. Although the level of complexity was not as high as I expected and as I was used to from my Bachelor's, I really appreciate the practical approach during the courses. Working with real-life cases, projects and learn useful management tools really improved my understanding of these topics. Overall, it was a good time and I am thankful for the support from the uni and professors during the courses and administrative obstacles.
