International career path

I have worked as an English language teacher in three countries thanks to my qualifications from Victoria. After graduating with a PhD, I worked as an adviser at the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment, and I'm now teaching at the Australian National University. I have also continued to publish my research internationally.

  • Tymara Oberdries (Unlicensed) please remove TESOL from this list (keep in mind this is double-published so the subject still needs to exist just not be included in this page). Then change the order of the subject areas to be as follows

  4. Writing
  5. Text Technologies

  • Andrew Bredenkamp Please add the Applied linguistics and TESOL subject blocks from Language Teaching - the exact same block should be dual-published.
  •  

 

1.5.0-2Jane Young (Unlicensed)http://stage.victoria.ac.nz/explore/study-areas/linguistics/study

I don't think that the BA block should be there as it isn't a major in the BA - Paul Seiler (Unlicensed) could you confirm this

Jane Young (Unlicensed) Linguistivcs is a major in the BA, so the page is correct.
