The Language Centre has been part of the University of Warwick's central academic services since its establishment in 1964. The Language Laboratory was first set up in 1964 on the East Site (Gibbet Hill Site), by the Senior Technician Laurie Evans.
It moved to new premises in 1966 in a new building which is now solely the Library, but the building then housed the Arts Faculty, Library, Book-bindery and Photography departments. When the Arts faculty (Humanities) building was constructed in 1970, we occupied a few rooms within our current location.
We have taken over a few adjacent rooms over the years to reach our current capacity. We managed at last in 1995 to equip all four of our language laboratories with the same machines, standardizing with the Tandberg IS10 model. This has made the life of our tutors easier by not having to become familiar with different operating controls.
Laurie Evans became Superintendant, but later was re-designated Director until his death in 1985. Afterward, the post of Director was taken by Noemi Messora (appointed 50%) and when she left Warwick to return to Italy, Bob Powell was appointed to a full-time post as Director in 1993.
It can be seen from the archive photographs that Language Laboratory technology has moved on, from valve open-reel tape recorders to transistor solid-state open-reel, cassette tape recorders. Having recently installed a fully digitalized satellite system, we are now progressing to totally computerized digital sound recording.
We have always maintained pace with technology to enable our tutors to utilise the most modern teaching methods - sometimes at the cutting edge of innovation. The Centre's activities continue to expand as part of the University's long-term commitment to the increased provision of foreign language tuition across the Faculties.
This course has been crafted to empower managers with essential coaching techniques, enabling them to enhance team performance, nurture employee growth, and drive organisational success.
This course is for those who currently work as a mentor, those who are interested in becoming a mentor or those who support others in some capacity.
Working with Jerry was a real pleasure. The value for me was his ability to listen to what I said (and what I didn’t say), think about it and formulate the right challenges and questions to help me grow. As a result, my self-awareness increased considerably and I was able to take braver actions t...
The role of mentor is a very important one and whether the relationship is formal or informal, the fact is that a good mentor can be instrumental in the development of not only a mentee’s skills and knowledge, but also their behaviour, attitude and social outlook.
Our college offers a coaching service for all staff, providing short-term, intense development to support various aspects of professional growth. This includes leadership skills, work-life balance, and idea exploration.
