Some want to take the postgraduate entrance examination and some want to take the TEM-8 exam. The certificate is only for TEM4, and the rest depends on your ability.

Send it to the province to participate in the English speech contest next semester.

Among them, most college English teachers are graduates majoring in language and literature. If you translate, you can do it later, and there are also difficult simultaneous interpretations. If you know business, you can understand it literally.
English is a language subject. In the words of our teacher, the content is "empty". It is suggested that you can minor in some business majors or others if you have spare capacity. Employment is hard to say. After all, in this era,
Speaking of translation, the simultaneous interpretation mentioned above is the most elaborate translation, with high income, which can be thousands an hour, but it is very hard. It is said that you will grow old at forty. . .
Question 7: I majored in English. What major should I minor in sophomore year? Tell me why. Educational psychology 10. Now mathematics and English are typical normal majors. Unless you don't major in this major, I suggest you minor in pedagogy and educational psychology. Take part in the teacher qualification examination, recruitment, special post teachers, etc., don't fantasize about being an interpreter ... Generally speaking, students who profess in universities can't do it at all.
Question 8: How about college English major? Hello ~ Congratulations on being admitted to the university and becoming a member of Yun Yun University in China.
I am an English major and will graduate next year. Let's discuss your problems one by one.
English is a big major and usually has different directions, such as those you mentioned in your supplement.
Generally speaking, English is divided into teacher training (that is, education), business, translation (which is also divided into interpretation and translation), British and American literature and so on. Every school is different, depending on the subject teachers in the school. You need to know the English direction of your school, through the enrollment brochure, seniors or teachers.
So, what do college English majors study?
Although the direction is different, there is not much difference in basic courses. In the course arrangement of freshmen and sophomores, it is generally public basic courses plus professional basic courses.
1, public elective courses are nothing more than four political courses of philosophy, thinking, introduction and modern history. Two years of physical education, maybe college Chinese or practical writing, computer foundation and VFP programming are all compulsory.
2. Professional basic courses: basic English for freshmen and sophomores, advanced English for juniors, grammar, English-Chinese translation, listening, oral English, cross-cultural communication, linguistics, lexicology, British and American literature, general situation of British and American countries, and elementary foreign languages+advanced foreign languages are basically these.
3, the direction of professional courses is different, depending on your direction. Education will learn examination methods, education, interpretation and other businesses will learn business correspondence, advanced trade practice, primary accounting. It may also depend on the arrangement of the school teaching and research group. The basic courses of freshmen and sophomores can't escape.
As for what to study, I can't give you direct advice.
I switched my major from economics to English, not because I like English, but because math became an obstacle to my graduation, so I had no choice. Personally (and many people think so), English, as a tool, is not very technical (except for majors with strong professionalism in NB schools, such as translation, interpretation and simultaneous interpretation). Considering that your school is basically negligible). I have been teaching English for three years, but my professionalism has made me gain little. Part of the reason is that I don't work hard enough and concentrate on the club. Part of the reason is that the attitude of the school (which is a hot topic now) determines that teachers fool students in class and students fool teachers in exams, so I haven't learned much knowledge related to my major.
My suggestion is that after you enter school, change to a professional major and change boldly. Don't listen to what the school doesn't allow, the school will definitely block you, because the school should establish its own authority. But you have to understand that this is your life's hard work, and you must actively strive for it, even if it is to pay the handling fee. Then in the sophomore year, the school can apply for a double degree, provided that there is no record of failing the course. The reasons for this proposal are as follows:
First of all, you say you love English, which is the key. Secondly, the second degree course with double degrees will be very easy. Teachers will take special care of these students and generally give them a small range before the exam. The premise is that you have to spend a lot of time on it and you have twice as many subjects as others. You don't have time to join clubs, student unions, * * * or even fall in love (usually on weekends).
Moreover, as far as English itself is concerned, learning depends on oneself, and the role played by teachers can be said to be negative, such as a bunch of irrelevant homework, cramming exams, and so on.
As long as you firmly believe that you can bear hardships, learn your major well, insist on memorizing words, listening to English and reading aloud, then OK, your English will be better than most English majors, which is so realistic.
The university really depends on itself, and it is very rare to meet a good teacher. This reason should be attributed to external factors, and internal factors are the key. Only if you are willing to learn, can you bear the loneliness of learning (the university is really impetuous now, very impetuous), don't be confused by people and things around you, always remember your dreams and keep your ideals, you will succeed. Compared with high school, college courses are really easy to mix, but it is not easy to get lost, remember ~
Wish you success!
Question 9: I am a sophomore majoring in English, and I want to choose the direction of education. Does anyone know what courses there are in the direction of education? You should see how good your English is in 30 minutes. Generally speaking, translation needs English ability more than education. As far as entrance examination is concerned, education is easier.
Question 10: What subjects should college English majors study? It's basically related to English. Teaching oral English, advanced English, extensive reading, listening, writing and grammar from sophomore year. In addition, it depends on which direction you choose, and there are elective courses. The direction of education is second language acquisition and language testing. Business courses are also different.
