Graph analysis
Basically, the graph is saying that over the years between 2001 and
2007, the first-year French-language teachers with regular teaching
jobs have generally increased. However the English-language teachers
with regular teaching jobs have only decreased. The graph joins up
the lines between the percentage of French and English-language
teachers and their year of graduation. In other words, depending on
their year of graduation the percentage of teachers with regular jobs
differs. The data was taken from the magazine professionally
speaking of the Ontario College of teachers. It relates with the article
A New Generation of Ontario Teachers because it explains how the
English language teachers have less jobs opportunities in their first
year out of college then French language teachers. Like mentioned in
the article, there are less English teaching positions available when the
French-language teaching market remains very strong. We can finally
conclude with the fact that, after 2002 the demand for young teachers
in both languages decreased but over the years the demand for
French-language teachers in a regular teaching job have slowly
increased, but for the English-language teachers it only got worst until
2003, then climbed a little until 2005 when it dropped again. Hence,
approximately 75% of the French-language teachers, in 2007, find
regular teaching jobs on their first year out of college, when less than

30% of English-language teachers find a regular teaching job on their

first year out of college during the same year.
