    Introduction from Teach For Australia

    "I really absorbed a lot of knowledge in this expertise it help me to improve my way of teaching and discovered a new technique that can help me to convey inf to students and the best things in this is the practical side and tasks . It help me to be sure about understanding every point in this experience."-- Student from Sudan University for Science and Technology
    "This was a really great program for someone who hasn't begun the teaching journey yet but is applying to courses! It really helped me gain an understanding of how the classroom works and the type of attitudes and types of learning I can use."-- Student from Burnley College
    "Really helpful and insightful, particularly given the barriers to gaining opportunities to observe in schools under the current circumstances. I would definitely apply if I was based in Australia. The final task which involved recording speech was perhaps the only part which the online delivery and programme affected."-- Student from University of Sheffield
    "I am so thankful for Teach for Australia for making the virtual experience program so that I, and others like me who may not have the resources to gain real-life teaching experience, can have the opportunity to take a small peek into the teaching world. I hope that in the future, I am able to see a virtual internship available from Teach for Austra..."-- Student from University of East Anglia
    "I felt that the virtual experience program challenged me to become a better public speaker when giving out lessons."-- Student
