Description
Terry Devlin has been a Management Consultant in
Christchurch, New Zealand since moving from England in 1973.
After his wife, Joan, died in 1999, Terry took up a new dimension
with teaching English to overseas students mainly from South Korea,
Japan and China.
He successfully completed a TESOL Course in 2001 and this complemented tertiary
studies in English Language and Literature from Canterbury University where he
gained a Bachelor of Arts degree.
Prior to that he was qualified and experienced in teaching management subjects and
obtained a City and Guilds Teaching Diploma in England.
The reason for taking up ESOL was that, while taking homestay students for many
years, he realised that one essential skill missing from most language schools
curricula was the ability to use the English language effectively. Strong on grammar
but limited on usefulness!
The English Conversation Centre started in 2000 and
concentrated on Pronunciation, Reading, Speaking, Listening
and Understanding. In looking for suitable material it was soon
clear this was not available in the right form so Terry began
creating his own exercises and writing his own stories for use in
the classes. These range from Beginner, through Intermediate
and to Advanced level and over all age groups.
Callum and Oliver Devlin (right) are two of Terrys three grandsons and they have
done the illustrations for the books. The twins have shown an aptitude for the arts and
this shines out from the excellent drawings.
