    Lecturer/Senior Lecturer in Applied Linguistics

    School of Linguistics and Applied Language Studies Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand

    We are looking for a new staff member to join our well-established team of teachers and researchers in applied linguistics.

    The successful applicant will be able to show evidence of effective teaching skills and the ability to design, implement and publish peer-reviewed research in the field of applied linguistics. An appointment at Senior Lecturer level will require a strong record of research and publication. An appointment at Lecturer level would be suitable for a promising candidate who has recently, or nearly, completed a PhD.

    The major emphasis of the positions is on TESOL. Although we have listed areas of speciality in the job description, we are particularly looking for people who are committed to making a difference in the field of language education, who can work with experienced and pre-service language teachers and who are able to supervise to PhD level. Our postgraduate programmes for teachers have been running for many years and our MA is now available for students studying at a distance. In addition we are about to embark on teaching a new B.Ed (TESOL) degree specifically for Malaysian teachers of English.

    This is an excellent opportunity to make a significant contribution to an internationally recognised School at a time of change. A job description is attached.
