First of all, the degree of acquisition is different. The degree of curriculum and teaching theory is a master's degree in education, mainly pedagogy, and the English education for English majors should be classified as English language and literature, and finally a master's degree in literature. Both of them are academic graduate students, and you said that this subject education belongs to the master of pedagogy, which means that in addition to pedagogy, comprehensive English will be tested. Literally, we can know that one is more inclined to pedagogy and the other is more inclined to English major. If you are an English major, I suggest you take the English education for English majors. Although graduate students majoring in English are not easy to take the exam, graduation is professional consistency after all. If you are an interdisciplinary graduate student, or you are an education major, then take the education exam, so that you can review better. Another point is which is better, academic research or major. It's hard to say.
