WHAT OTHER ARE SAYING

“Surviving and Thriving: Strategies for a Successful First Year of teaching provides high quality information and resources to support all teachers with transitioning from studying education into practicing teaching.

Specifically, the range of practical topics included such as obtaining a teaching contract, applying for casual teaching across Australia, balancing work and home life, understanding your rights as a beginner teacher, teacher wellbeing, and becoming familiar with the Education Union are valuable and address many of the challenges that beginner teachers can encounter when commencing your career.

In addition, ready-made pedagogical strategies, behaviour management strategies, Curriculum Vitae guidance, and tips for how to approach your first year of teaching provide practical information that assists with the preparation, professional skills, and confidence needed to optimise your teaching experience. Surviving and Thriving presents an ideal platform for University graduates to further connect their learning with the dynamic and experiential elements of teaching, and functions to provide you with useful tools to foster a positive start to a long-term teaching career.”

“This course was fantastic, it teaches you things that they can’t teach you at University and really gives you an insight on what to expect in your first year!"

The behaviour management and skills were super insightful and useful, the way they use real life examples helped me implement it in my classroom”
