"I've always wanted to be a Primary School Teacher."
"I was aware that ECU specialised in teaching and I had a cousin who highly recommended the University. The fact that each year involved classroom practicals also influenced my decision to choose ECU. The skills and knowledge I have gained definitely help when I come across challenges involving students. I find the course to be accommodating and flexible, and the staff are with me every step of the way."
