Series 7 Episode 3: Dreams as a future teacher (Part 1)
Listen on your fav platform.
Welcome to episode 3 of series 7 as we continue to share our experiences of a study tour and global education practicum supported by the New Colombo Plan. This episode is part 1 of 3 recorded in a large room with us all gathered around a microphone to capture the moment. We are joined by 7 Malaysian pre-service teachers from the teacher institute Institut Pendidikan Guru Kampus Tun Abdul Razak (IPGKTAR) in Kuching, Malaysia Borneo to talk all things being and becoming teachers.
In this episode co-produced by Taylah, we talk about dreams as a future teacher and what this means regarding professional responsibilities, care, empathy and legacy. Lots of insights are provided into varied reasons of why we have become a teacher, and we consider perspectives, challenges, the pandemic, and what this means for our meaning, purpose and why.
Special thank you to my colleagues for this episode:
