    Kick start your career with languages in style

    Tuesday, 21 September 2010
    Recent statistics have shown that languages have proven to be less popular in schools, with French taking a real knock at GCSE level. This in turn means that less sixth-formers will study languages at A-Level, which could have - and already has had, in some circles - some disastrous consequences for language departments at university level.

    Learning a new language...every year!

    Thursday, 12 August 2010
    I've always been interested in languages. By high school graduation I spoke Spanish, German, French, and Filipino. I started my blog to answer questions about how I learn languages, and I chose "fluent every year" as a fun goal with a unique identity. It turns out, it's already more popular than I ever expected, and I'm still just getting started!

    Tinker, tailor, soldier... interpreter?

    Monday, 21 June 2010
    Aside from the usual translator or teacher jobs, is there much you can do with languages? People are always quick to reply in the positive, but you've inevitably got that voice in your head going 'Really? Like what exactly?'. Because, let's be honest here, there doesn't seem to be much on offer apart from TEFL. Not that there's anything wrong with that - the British Council language assistantship definitely gets the thumbs up if you want to combine work and leisure in some really exotic countries, but we've been doing some research...

    Work Abroad

    Wednesday, 12 May 2010
    Deciding to work abroad has many benefits, besides filling in a few more lines on your CV. You can gain international work experience, develop your language skills, learn new techniques and methods of working and (hopefully) get paid in the process. For some, the transition from studying into the world of work doesn't represent much of a challenge, whilst others may find it just that little bit more difficult; with either scenario, you need to go informed, prepared and ready to make the most of your new job, which is why we've created this section of the site.

    Modern languages postgraduate and masters courses 2010

    Tuesday, 16 February 2010
    This is The Guardian's table to show the UK universities which offer full- and part-time modern language postgrad and MA courses, how much on average you'd expect to spend while there, the percentage of students from outside the UK, the student to staff ratio, the completion rate and the tuition fees (whether you're from the UK or abroad).

    The art of comparing rankings.

    Guest Blog: A career with languages

    Wednesday, 18 August 2010
    When I chose to study French and Italian the only thing I was certain about was that I wanted to use the languages I had acquired in my future job. So when my graduation gown had been flung back onto the pile, I naturally did what any self-respecting linguist would do (especially after a year in Manchester), and went in search of the sun!
