I become more confident than before for my future career as an Assistant Lecturer at the University of Education in Myanmar after studying Master of Education course in University of Adelaide and I enjoy taking part in lectures, tutorials, seminars, class discussion and presentation which help me improve my knowledge and communication skills. Being taken care by all the staff, lecturers and classmates makes me feel relax and motivated to attend the class and participating in the class activities. I believe the knowledge and skills given by this University help me inspire my ambitions which are to share knowledge and pedagogy to my students, pre-service teachers in Myanmar and I am impressed the teachers here and I want myself to be competent like them. The services supported by the University are perfect and very convenient for all students and we love spending our time at Uni not only in School hours but in school off days. Overall, I am thankful myself to choose that course at University of Adelaide and I will never forget my precious and enjoyable time in that uni.
I enjoy joining Free Breakfast, Morning Tea at International Student Centre and lunch which give us warm feeling and the chance to meet and have a chat with other international students and we can share our experiences related to different courses, cultures, countries and traditions.
Why did you choose your degree?
This degree is closely related to my previous one: MEd (Pedagogic Methodology) and currently I am working as an Assistant Lecturer at Sagaing University of Education, Myanmar, so I believe that this course can help me improve my pedagogical knowledge (how to teach) and content knowledge (what to teach), technological knowledge (how to use technology) and Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) as well.
Why did you choose to study at the University of Adelaide?
I find the courses giving for Master of Education in this University interesting and useful for me not only for my personal interest but also for my job and I believe that this University can equip the required skills and abilities not only pre-service teachers but also in-service teachers who are willing to teach in an effective and excellent way. This University also take good care of students concerned with not only Education, but Health, security, social affairs, education, technology, learning experience and they provide the excellent support and service for all students: undergraduate and post graduates.
What do you enjoy about your degree/time at uni?
I enjoy joining Free Breakfast, Morning Tea at International Student Centre and lunch which give us warm feeling and the chance to meet and have a chat with other international students and we can share our experiences related to different courses, cultures, countries and traditions.
I also love Uni for having a lot of places like hub to study, kitchen for meal and other places to study or to spend time with friend at our spare time and this university, I feel, our home because we can enjoy, eat and relax once we feel tired of doing our study. For me, this university is an excellent university.
What do you hope to do in the future once you are qualified?
I hope to contribute the knowledge I learnt here to my University and my Country. I also want my country and education standard to be developed and all students can benefit the high standard education system. I have learnt how the lecturers approach the teaching and learning process, how they utilize the technology in their teaching and students’ learning, how they pay individual attention to all students and take good care of students and facilitate and support their students by the high quality course with excellent teaching strategies, objectives, and assignments, I hope to apply these in the future once I am qualified enough to receive my Master’s degree here.
