A Language Certificate? Teachers of the Maori language are in short supply, not only in the schools but also for adult classes. One way of overcoming this would be to institute a language certificate in Maori. A course of this kind would also extend the knowledge of those interested in Maori language, society and culture, and it would provide a basis for the understanding of Maori attitudes and values. To make such a course a living one, teaching would have to be mostly in Maori. Aspects which emphasise the promotion of understanding could be conducted in English.
