You'll focus primarily on teaching English—with all its confusing contradictions and unpredictable pronunciations—but your skills will be applicable to other languages too.

  Carmen Harji

  Bachelor of Commerce and GCertTESOL

  Pull quote: I could not have asked for a better start to my teaching career.

  Carmen enrolled in several undergraduate courses in linguistics and TESOL as part of her BCom in International Business at Victoria University of Wellington.
  “After completing my BCom, and inspired by these courses, I enrolled in the Graduate Certificate of TESOL, a 12 week programme taught over the summer trimester.”
  Following a passion
  Carmen’s personal interest in geographically isolated and traditionally resource-constrained teaching contexts led her to work with the Ladakhi Women’s Travel Company in Northern India’s trekking base of Leh
  “Our mission is to provide young Ladakhi women with a livelihood whilst challenging traditional work roles in the male-dominated industry of mountain guiding.”
  Her work with this company involves building the basic language capabilities of porters in a lower English proficiency class through to addressing wider societal issues such as climate change, development and gender equality in classes for more proficient trainee guides.
  Set up for success
  The practicum component of the GCertTESOL was of particular value to Carmen.
  ”It gave me the confidence to lead classes and experiment with ways of managing a class to provide maximum opportunities for actual language use in the classroom. I could not have asked for a better start to my teaching career.”
