The Centre is housed in two interconnecting listed Georgian houses overlooking Queen Square. The atmosphere of the Centre is relaxed, friendly and purposeful. Students come from all walks of life, and their education, work and life experience varies enormously. Some students do not have English as their first language.
The Languages department offers courses in French, Italian, Spanish, Turkish, Hindi, Cantonese. We have a successful record in offering courses in Community Interpreting and Translation courses in partnership with Croydon Adult Learning and Training (CALAT) and the Workers' Educational Association (WEA).
The Community Translation Principles and Practice course for which we now seek a tutor, has recently been restructured to include a large blended (online) element and we are looking for a dynamic and committed tutor who will push this forward. A similar post is also available at CALAT and there would be advantages to having the same tutor teach the course in both colleges.
Please note that the successful candidate will be required to undergo a Criminal Records Bureau check.

5. Assess student progress throughout the course and give feedback to
students.

7. Evaluate her/his work in order to provide a basis for future development.
8. Attend occasional staff meetings and demonstrate a commitment to in-service training
9. Offer advice and support to students wishing to progress to future training or work.
Person Specification
The successful applicant will:
1. Have substantial experience of working as a translator in public services
2. Demonstrate awareness of the issues faced by community translators working in the field.
3. Have gained the OCNLR certificate in Translation at level 3 or other level 3/level 4 Translation qualification.
4. Have proven experience in adult education, or relevant experience in leading groups of adults from a variety of different backgrounds.
5. Have a recognised qualification in teaching adults, or be committed to acquiring the appropriate qualification within the specified timeframe.
6. Know how to structure and deliver a course through blended learning (classroom sessions, e-learning and online tutorials), and know how to assess students' work.
7. Be able to reflect on and improve their own teaching practice.
8. Demonstrate understanding of the ethos of adult education.
9. Have a commitment to the Centre's Equal Opportunities policy which is stated below:
‘The Mary Ward Centre is committed to providing an adult education service which offers equality of opportunity. We believe that people have a right to an adult education service which promotes social justice and is free from unfair discrimination on any grounds. We are committed to opposing these forms of discrimination both in the delivery of our adult education service and in our recruitment and employment practices.'
Pay
The current standard rate of hourly pay for all Mary Ward tutors is £25.21 per hour although this does increase with a recognised teaching qualification.
How To Apply
Application forms are available from the Mary Ward Centre. Please send in your completed application form, including the supporting statement saying how you meet the Person Specification by 5pm on Monday 17th December 2007.

SCHOLARSHIPS FOR ENGLISH LANGUAGE ASSISTANTS IN LOMBARD SCHOOLS
2007-2008 Academic Year
The Rete delle scuole autonome della Lombardia offers a program of study, training and cross-cultural experience for the 2007-2008 academic year to native speakers of English. The program is open to individuals
who are completing or have recently completed (within the last 18 months) university studies in Italian language and culture, and is also open to students who are currently enrolled in M.A. or Ph.D. programs in
Italian language and culture in North-American universities. While the program is intended for enrolled students or recent graduates whose course of study is Italian language and culture, it is also open to
enrolled students or recent graduates in other disciplines who would like to have an intercultural experience of study and training in Italian schools. The program is part of the Europa dell'Istruzione project which promotes linguistic and intercultural exchange within Europe and across the globe.
The terms of the program are as follows:
1. The selected candidates will plan a program of study and training that is in keeping with their university curriculum and their own cultural and linguistic goals. The program shall be carried out at an appointed school.
2. The selected candidates must be covered by medical insurance. [1]
3. Reimbursement for expenses will come to a net total of 500 Euros a month, and can be offered in non-monetary form such as provision of lodging.
4. The school which hosts the appointed candidates will designate a tutor who will see to their reception and integration, and who will serve as their principal resource and point of reference. The tutor will
help the students to locate housing (apartment, room, or room with a family). The identity of the tutor will be communicated to the selected candidates, or to their university, before their arrival in Italy.
5. The selected candidates commit themselves to attend a program of 12 hours per week of training in English language instruction and to 13 cumulative hours per week of various other activities, namely, independent study, creation of projects, conversation with students, office hours, excursions, meetings with a tutor, and reports, in the school to which they are assigned. The schedule is arranged with the tutor designated by the directors of the program.
6. The selected candidates may be able to attend courses in the local universities. The courses should be consistent with the above mentioned activities and are subject to agreement of the interested
parties.
7. The duration of the program will be from 3 months to a school year (between October and May). The duration is to be settled before the student's departure, according to the needs of the schools and the
candidates themselves. The departure date should also conform to the directives of the Italian Consular Officers in regard to the acquisition of a visa.
8. Absence on the part of students-whether for reasons of personal or family health, or to take university exams-must be justified and may not in any case exceed 15 days.
9. At the end of the program in the designated school, the School Principal will issue a certificate indicating the dates of the scholarship, noting any periods of absence. The assigned tutor will assess the intern's work.
The criteria for the selection of candidates are as follows, in order of importance:
1. Personal motivation
2. Letter of recommendation from a professor, addressing the motivation and character of the applicant
3. Experience of teaching any language to non-native speakers (preferably, experience teaching English to foreigners)
4. Status as current Italian majors or minors, recent graduates in Italian (within 18 months), or status as M.A. or Ph.D. students currently specializing in Italian language and culture
5. Completion of at least 3 semesters of Italian at university with a minimum grade of B, or equivalent knowledge of Italian
6. Experience of study or work abroad, or participation in cross-cultural activities and projects in North America
7. cumulative GPA of 3.25 or equivalent
8. Intention, confirmed by professor, of undertaking graduate study in Italian in a masters or doctoral program
Documents to submit with application:
1. A short essay, of between 800 and 1000 words, in Italian or English on the theme "Italy and Your Country: Confronti." The essay may address questions such as: What similarities and differences have you
noticed, or do you expect to find, between the American and Italian culture? How do you think you could contribute to the cultural, intellectual, and linguistic enrichment of an Italian student of English? Why do you wish to apply to this scholarship in Italy?
(PLEASE NOTE: A high level of proficiency in Italian language and culture will be a preferential criterion for the selection of the candidate.)
2. A letter of recommendation from a professor.
3. An official transcript of university grades, updated to the most recent term of study.
4. A copy of the university diploma (B.A. or higher).
If the number of applicants who are enrolled or recently graduated students is lower than the number of scholarships available in Lombardy, students from other disciplines can then be admitted. The criteria for
selection will be the same, except for points 4 and 5. However, completion of at least 1 semester of Italian at university with a minimum grade of B, or equivalent knowledge of Italian will still be required.
How to apply:
The essay "Italy and Your Country: Confronti," accompanied by a brief cover letter (please include complete address, telephone number, and secondary address), must be sent via e-mail by the student directly to:
Prof. Carlo Cipollone ufficioscuole.boston@esteri.it
no later than midnight (Eastern Standard Daylight Time) on 21 April 2007. The other documents should be postmarked 21 April 2007 and mailed by standard mail to:

Candidates will be evaluated by a committee organized by the Rete delle scuole autonome della Lombardia (Prof. Catia Benelli, Prof. Benedetto Di Rienzo, Prof. Paola Severgnini, Prof. Giuseppe Strada) in collaboration
with the Educational Office of the Consulate General of Italy in Boston (Prof. Carlo Cipollone) and the Italian Department at Middlebury College (Prof. Nicoletta Marini-Maio). The committee will make a ranked list of
preferable candidates, and scholarships/internships will be assigned until there are no more left.
In order to avoid bureaucratic delays (in the acquisition of a visa, etc.) the committee will begin the selection process immediately. To this end, candidates are asked to send application materials as soon as possible. Successful candidates will be notified by the selection committee by 26 May, 2007.
[1] N.B.: In order to obtain a visa, Italian law requires that assistants prove that they have health insurance.
Health insurance can be either American or Italian. If the student chooses Italian insurance, he or she should be informed that basic health insurance (called INA) can be acquired upon payment via postal order, for a cost of approximately 70 to 80 euros per year. This kind of insurance covers all emergencies and any medical services for which a visit to an emergency room or urgent care clinic is necessary.List memebrs may be interested to note the advertisement of a permanent Lectureship in Italian Studies at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland UK, with a closing date of 30 March 2007.
