Comments from Past Students about their time in IEC

"My advice to prospective students would be "Just go for it". The program challenges you to become the best teacher you can be. It provides opportunities for research, for collaboration with colleagues, and for reflecting on your life as an early childhood practitioner."  
  "I'm so proud of achieving this degree from Macquarie as the university is well-known for its high standards. This is a course to challenge your professional thoughts, feelings and desires to work as an effective early childhood teacher"
"This is a great course because I could learn while I was teaching and bring it all together in my workplace. I found that the program made me more community-minded and more polically aware. It made me step out of my comfort zone and recognize that there is so much more to my job that I ever realized." (Graduate from Bachelor of Teaching [Birth to School Age])  
  "The bond I made with other students and the support from the university staff made the semesters fly  by, and I've gained invaluable knoledge and skills during my study. I feel that I'm now prepared and comfortable about taking on the role as an early childhood teacher."
