Hi all, my name is Julian and I am now an official Student Teacher. It has already been a bit of a trip to get to where I am today. I have been considering teaching for a year or two and finally made up my mind to apply to study it through the University of Tasmania.
It would have been a couple of months ago that I applied and over the a period of about a month I was waiting to see if I would get an offer from the Uni. The whole time I was constantly checking my email and online university account to see what the progress on my application was.
The day finally came that I got my offer and it was a bitter sweet day, as even though you get the offer and you then enrol, you still have to wait for your course to get approved and then for your classes to also get approved as well. So yet again I was back to checking emails and my online account. So after about a month of sweating and worrying that I had possibly forgotten to do something I finally received confirmation that everything was approved.
The next step will be to head into the university and get the required texts.
All that I can currently say is that I am very excited to be going back to study. I look forward to helping and directing my students through, over or possibly around any obstacles that might stand in their way.

P.S. Look out future students I am on my way :-)
