“You need to be passionate about what you teach, because if you don’t love what you
are doing it is very difficult to inspire others. Every day is different and you are always
learning something new.
I thought the program was well-structured as there were many different elective courses
to choose from to develop your knowledge and interest in that area.
I particularly enjoyed my final year of study where I completed two practicum blocks at
