Leah Pereira - Bachelor of Education (Teaching)

Studying the Bachelor of Education (Teaching) has allowed Leah to pursue her love of learning by helping students make connections and meanings of the world around them.

"I decided to do the Bachelor of Education (Teaching) programme as I love learning and I had such amazing and inspirational teachers both in primary school and high school.

"The journey that you go through when making connections and meanings of the world around us is such an amazing thing to experience, so to be able to be the facilitator of that for young people is the best feeling. If I can pass on that love for learning to my students like my teachers have done so for me, I know that I am doing my job right.

Leah Pereira Bachelor of Education (Teaching) Primary Specialisation

"There is such a variety of things that you learn in this programme, not just about the different subjects you teach your students like your math and literacy, but also things like educational psychology and the history of education. This really helps us understand why we do things in the classroom when we are out on our practicums. 

"One thing that I have learned in my practicum placements is to expect the unexpected. You come across such a diverse range of students in every classroom who come from all different walks of life. Each student has taught me something different, and no two of my practicums have been the same. 

"I would definitely recommend this programme. If you love to learn, enjoy working with children and want to make a difference in the lives of future generations I would highly recommend the Bachelor of Education (Teaching) programme."
