Is English Language A Good Course? by NikeMi1(f): 9:56pm On Jun 14, 2020 |
Please what are the job opportunities for English language graduate apart from being a teacher? When I tell people I'm studying English language ...Most people say "oh you will become a teacher" and I tell them that "No!..it's people that studied English language education that are trained to teach ... It's so annoying... Nigerians are so ignorant... Just because you're not studying a professional course means your course is not hard 1 Like |

English is a professional course on its own. I studied English, Infact i studied English Education and i can tell u i hav frnds that we did d course together dt hav never taken a chalk before. I first worked as a teacher with my state government but now i am doing better in a field where my knowledge of English is still needed without me holding a chalk to teach. Mind you, teaching is a good profession and i am a proud teacher anytime any day. 4 Likes |

English language doesn't necessarily mean teaching. English education settles the matter of teaching but English graduates teach as well. There are fields like journalism and communication which covers editing, article publication as well as many others. There is literature and phonetics as well. I suggest you learn phonetics it pays like craze besides you know need to be a permanent teacher. Assuming I know this thing I for no dey science I swear but Science rocks!!! 3 Likes |

Zeeknow3245: simple250: Hi, I am studying English language and Literature at the University. I am planning on specializing in phonetics and phonology, but I don't know how it will benefit me after school(Career and monetary aspect) without being a teacher. I won't mind if you put me through. Thanks |

cingelai:Truth be told I ain't a student of English just a Regular guy. A guy wanted to speak with my sister but she refused because she doesn't speak to strangers and feels it is confidential. The truth is that if you want to make it in English you must be versatile. Please learn how to use Ms Word,Excel,Ms Suite,Publication and a bit of Statistics. It will be an added advantage. This skills will help you when you will want to switch to journalism. I have met many English students and many cannot type efficiently not to talk of the rest. English is not about manual method. Education is evolving so should you. When you have this skills you will be Indispensable. 2 Likes |

Omoluabi9: Advanced English composition has been the most challenging course under language stress. There are other challenging courses under literature stress, but it's usually caused by Lecturers method of lecturing. When I gained admission, I thought Phonetics and phonology will be the most challenging course, however, it's now one of my favourite course. 2 Likes |

English is a very good course, I study English and currently in 400l. Concerning your question, you can major in literature or language, I majored in language so I don't really know about literature. In language u can major in pragmatics, sociolinguistic, phonetics and phonology stylistics and many more depending on your choice. I bet it with you if you develop and work hard on yourself in this field you are far better than mass communication student that only carry their course name on head. And beside English is more lucrative that if you are sure of yourself.... see you at the top. 2 Likes |
