Hi everyone, I'm so late this TP sorry. Life got crazy for a little bit there and I'm just playing catch up now. I live in the Mornington Peninsula with my husband and our two kids aged 7 and 9. I have previously taught secondary science and decided to move across to primary when my kids started school. Primary just seems like so much fun! I'm looking forward to working with and learning from you all :)

Hi everyone, apologies for the lateness of my arrival, I had a hysterectomy four weeks ago and took a bit longer to come back to life (so to speak) than I thought I would. Anyway, I'm on the mad catch up this weekend and am making great progress. I've studied with Erin before, hello again!! I completed my Grad Dip and graduated in March, but decided that for four more units I would come back and complete the Masters, so here I am. I live in regional Victoria, am married and have four amazing kids. I've worked in the school system for 19 years in admin and finance, and am really looking forward to transitioning in to the classroom when this is completed. Have a great unit everyone.

Hi everyone, sorry for the late arrival, school holidays have kept me too busy! My name is Krystal and I live in Melbourne with my partner, two kids (boy 8, girl 4) and our two dogs.
Have enjoyed all aspects of my Masters so far, in particular the experience of placement. This unit is going to be an eye-opener for me as I am yet to see the theory of 'meeting the diverse range of learners needs' in practice....I feel like everyone talks about it, but not many do it in reality, so I'm looking forward to learning and putting it in to practice next TP for my final placement unit.
All the best, and can't wait to work with you all and support each other through this unit.

Hi all,
Some new names, some familiar. Like many here, I too am thrilled to be completing my final TP. I am a Home Economics, Human Development and Society and Textiles teacher with 7 years teaching experience. I left teaching and started helping a friend to run her business. This led to an Associate Diploma in Business (Accounting) and many years working as a bookkeeper and Office Manager. For something different, I managed Multi-Disciplinary clinics before coming full circle to where my values lie; education. Its been an amazing journey and now I'm doing what I initially set out to do; working with children.

Hi everyone! I currently live in Melbourne and I have a full time IT job for the local newspaper. I lived in Sydney for 8 years before I moved here. I am originally from the Philippines, and prior to getting an IT degree here in Australia I have been homeschooled by my mother. I have three more semesters to go before I finish my degree and I have been looking forward to this course since the beginning of this year.  Looking forward to meet everyone (albeit virtually) and reading discussions!

Hi Everyone. I live in Qld with my husband and 4 kids. I am a part-time primary music teacher, working with Preps (which is usually lots of fun), and in my 'spare' time I enjoy reading, crocheting and playing board games with my family. I feel that this is going to be a challenging unit in many ways and it will interesting to see how our view develop over the course of the unit.
