{UAH} Cal State San Marcos Seeking Luganda Evaluator for Student

Greetings from the Language Learning Center at Cal State San Marcos.

 

I am writing today with an unusual request - but hopefully something that is exciting!

 

Every student at CSUSM, in order to graduate, must meet our Language Other Than English Requirement (LOTER). We strive to test in all languages in the world, to make the process fair. We have just gotten our first request to test in Luganda.

 

Would someone at your organization be interested in assisting this program for 1-3 hours of their time? This is how it works: The student writes and speaks in our Center, and we send those files to the evaluator via email, along with an evaluation form and helpful guidelines. There is also a very short contract  to sign and mail back, as part of our legal requirements as a university. It takes about 1-2 hours to evaluate the exam, and the evaluator is welcome to bill us for the administrative time as well. The position pays $20/hour, which we know is not a lot, but is the amount approved by the university and which we hopes allows the evaluator to go out to a nice dinner on us as a thank you!

 

If this is of interest to someone at your organization (or affiliated with it in some way), it would be a pleasure to chat on the phone or via email.

 

With warm wishes and thanks for your time, 

Hilary Taylor
