Outstanding Language Education Award

Congratulations to Anita Chong, who was the very worthy recipient of the 2012 Hilde Dixon Award, the highest honour for language teachers in WA, for her contribution to outstanding language education in WA.

The Award was announced during last Saturday's Modern Language Teachers' Association of WA AGM. Anita was the only recipient out of all the nominations.

The Modern Language Teachers' Association of WA Hilde Dixon Award

The Modern Language Teachers' Association of WA (MLTAWA) Hilde Dixon Award reflects the values exemplified by Hilde during her teaching career.

This award is the highest honour for language teachers in WA.

At a National level there is the AFMLTA Medal.

The Hilde Dixon Award recognises and congratulates excellence in the teaching of languages and the commitment to language education in the classroom AND through involvement in language professional associations in Western Australia.

It is also designed to increase the status of the language teaching profession.

The award is presented annually at MLTAWA AGM or Conference.

Hilde Dixon

Hilde Dixon was a wonderfully talented and compassionate teacher who had a passion for languages education and a commitment to social justice. Hilde was a gifted linguist, and spoke Flemish (her mother tongue), French, German, Italian and Russian, as well as English, which we often forget was a foreign language for her. Hilde also studied Latin, Greek and Serbo-Croatian.

As a teacher, Hilde always ensured there was a strong focus on pastoral care, sharing her intelligence, knowledge and ironic sense of humour with her students. Hilde was committed to making a positive difference in everything she did and it was her personal warmth and concern for every student in her care which shone through

Hilde was an outstanding leader of languages education. She worked as a curriculum writer at the Schools of Isolated and Distance Education where she developed courses in French for students in Years 10-12. She was appointed as the chief examiner for French and spent the last years of her work in education at Applecross SHS teaching languages.
