Teaching Experience

It might be important for you to gain some teaching experience while pursuing your PhD if you are hoping for an academic career. Teaching experience at ANU will normally take the form of tutoring for an undergraduate course.

Unfortunately it is not possible to guarantee tutoring work, and if you get some, it should be regarded as a brief opportunity for teacher training rather than a reliable source of income.

If you are interested, study the list of undergraduate courses and leave a copy of your Curriculum Vitae for the relevant course convenor giving details of which courses you are competent to teach.

If you do secure tutoring work, and you don't have experience in teaching at university level you should consider enrolling in the Graduate Teaching Program.
