Love of Language - Become An Ambassador

Become An Ambassador

Language Ambassadors are supporters of languages education and who understand the importance of languages education. They are in some cases bilingual speakers or maybe speakers on more than 2 languages . In some cases they are those who have maintained their mother tongue and culture . They are willing share their experiences and through this show others the way. They are prepared to encourage others to maintain , learn or strengthen their language skills.

Others may only speak English, but recognise the importance of having others knowing a language . Many business people rely heavily on those with a language skill.

Ambassadors are prepared to provide a short testimonial, a brief bio and if requested at times to speak publically. Ambassadors will have contact with student, parents, principals, schools councils and if they have and possibly have interaction with people in other spheres - sport, business the arts and other areas.

We would be happy to speak to you - Please complete the form below.

I began my career as a reporter on ABC Radio in Newcastle in 1994 before moving to SBS after winning a national scholarship. In 2001, I was approached to join the Nine Network as a reporter on National Nine News where I covered breaking news events such as the Waterfall train disaster and the historic Sydney Gang rape trial. I played a key role in the 2004 Athens Olympics coverage, where I reported for several news and current affairs programs from the Greek capital and across Europe. Upon my return I was appointed host of the Late News program Nightline. In addition to that role, I presented a weekly news segment on the Network's flagship current affairs program Sunday, alongside host Jana Wendt.

Maintaining language culture is very important not just to me but to all the diversity communities as well as the wider community of Australia, English is my second language, I understand the importance of it, not just in our everyday life but also in connecting with the world politicly, economically and other aspects, but to most of us this wouldn't slow us in maintaining our main language, the world of today is about creating and sharing we should all be proud of who we are and share our cultural across the world, but it all start with your own identity of where you come from, I believe maintaining language is important to achieve all the desire of making this world a better place.
