"Studying my course at ECU has provided me with the knowledge and skills I need to succeed."
"I always enjoyed physical education from a young age and participated in a range of sports. At high school I was given the opportunity to teach primary school students how to play tennis, and in upper school I attended lower school sport carnivals and helped coach the students. My ideal career option was to become a Physical Education Teacher and to teach students how to play sport and to experience the same enjoyment I did.
The knowledge and skills I have developed during my course have provided me with the opportunity to be the most successful teacher I can be. The course content is well designed and contains a balance of both education and sports science units.
I have thoroughly enjoyed my study experience at ECU. Throughout my course I have been provided with the skills and knowledge that are required to successfully advance my career as a teacher. "
