Summary

It is with great enthusiasm and honour that I am submitting my application for applying the Graduate Teacher Program. I believe that I am the ideal candidate for this position. Having completed my intensive course of study, training, and hands-on experiences in the Early Childhood Teaching Program at Southern Cross University in July 2023, I have acquired the essential skills and knowledge required for this role. My educational background, practical experience, transferable skills, and bilingualism uniquely qualify me for this position.

Furthermore, I possess valuable experience working with children with disabilities, and within my family, I have a physiotherapist involved in the NDIS, which allows me to offer insights and assistance regarding children's physical development and overall physical health.
