Sociolinguistics
This course is an introduction to sociolinguistics, that part of linguistics that studies the
connection between language and society. Speakers of the same language do not all speak
exactly the same way, and an individual speaker does not speak the same way all the time.
Through a variety of readings, discussions, and assignments, we will explore language
variation across regions, ethnicity, social class, gender, age, and more. Students will learn
how sociolinguistic research is conducted and will become familiar with the major findings of
sociolinguistic research studies.
Research Methods
This mandatory entry level postgraduate diploma course in SPACE and SOLASS provides
students with a blended generic and discipline-based training in research design and
methodologies. It is a prerequisite course for students undertaking independent research at
the postgraduate level in the humanities and social sciences and related discipline areas.
The course delivers training in a range of generic transferable research skills, linking them to
relevant research, pedagogical, epistemological and scholarship issues at the discipline
level.
Time:

a Full-time, also if they choose Part-time the students can take one course each semester

Conclusion
To sum it up, Africa faces a shortage of opportunities for people interested in languages and
translation. This gap not only limits career options but also hinders effective communication
and cultural exchange. It's crucial for schools, governments, and businesses to recognize
the importance of language skills, invest in programs, and create more job opportunities.
Closing this gap can empower individuals and contribute to a more connected and

Anexos
Spain
One of the main options when people think about teaching English in Europe
is in Spain. It is one of the most paradisiac places to travel around and work. The common
regions where the need for English teaching are Madrid, Granada, Zaragoza, Seville,
Barcelona, Malaga, and Majorca. There is no legal requirement for a bachelor’s degree,
some schools may require it, although the possibility to get a job as an English teacher is
higher when the individual has a college degree or an academic background.
The opportunities working in Spain are available, there is no set age limits,
there are chances to work as a cultural assistant to teaching at a private language academy
to short summer placements at camps.
Italy
In Italy, the regions where there are greater opportunities are Rome, Milan,
Venice, Florence, Napoles, Bologna, Sardinia, and the Adriatic Coast, although there are job
opportunities all over the country.
To teach English in Italy, you will usually need a 120-hour TEFL certification
and some previous teaching experience. A bachelor’s degree is not a prerequisite, but many
schools do prefer to hire degree-holders.
Opportunities to teach in Italy include working at private language schools,
teach English abroad programs or international schools, as well as teaching private lessons
and placements at summer camps.
While most English teaching jobs will not expect you to be fluent in Italian
when you arrive, having some of the local language can go a long way to helping secure a
job. For certain English program placements, a qualification in Italian language is a
requirement.
Germany
Another great option that teacher seek after because this country offers job
opportunities to English teachers despite helping many people to understand how to speak
this complex but interesting language to foreign people. With its long history and beautiful
countryside, Germany has been considered for a lot of people to be a beautiful place for
English teachers to travel there.
The most popular locations for teaching jobs are Berlin, Munich, Freiburg, and
Frankfurt but, if you are a brand new TEFL teacher, you will find you have a much better
chance of securing a teaching job in the less popular cities and towns, particularly in Eastern
Germany.

Portugal
This is another option for English teaching that has been considered for teaching in
Europe. Although it has his advantages and disadvantages, it has been evolving as an
option to be a place where teaching English is considered.
The average cost of living in Portugal is $1,000 - $1,800 monthly. Expenses are
higher in Lisbon.
Another reason of why Portugal is considered a great option for teaching English in
Europe it’s because Portugal claims the #1 spot on lists ranking the best digital nomad
destinations. Also because of its generous digital nomad visa options, friendly atmosphere,
and relatively low-cost living, it is considered a great option to teach.
