I chose Evans High School specifically due to its location being in the Western suburbs. With
such a diverse range or nationalities and ethnicities I intend on also learning about these
with the students and whilst it may set different challenges for myself, I am also eager to
learn about the student’s backgrounds. Facing these different cultural backgrounds and
cultures I feel it will better guide me in the future to know how to deal with certain sensitive
topics regarding student’s backgrounds and beliefs. Having such a diverse range of
ethnicities within schools I feel will be beneficial to not only myself and other educators but
to other students as well, as they see and learn about other cultures and religions.
I feel I would bring a sense of security as well as friendliness towards the students. Growing
up in the same area as most of the students, it will give me an advantage as to knowing
what most of the students face outside of school daily. The challenges that are known to
such a specific place and being aware of Blacktown specifically, I feel this gives me an
advantage as an educator as I understand and lived under these circumstances that the
students of Evans High School currently live under. Growing up in the same suburb and
setting as the students will help me understand what the students are going through hence
give me a sense of friendliness and hopefully become more approachable by the students
themselves.
I hope to achieve a successful placement by teaching and supporting the students with all
their problems, as well as build a friendly bond with the students, whilst making the learning
enjoyably and fun. As learning may be difficult for some students, my goal is to make it
easier and teach in a way that is more understandable for each student. Hopefully making
the workload seem lesser and my end goal, for students to appreciate and enjoy attending
school.
