Overall
I studied a Teaching postgraduate course in Deakin and it was a great choice. Most of the lecturers have been amazing with me. So long as I am dedicated to doing my course to the bes of my abilities, the lecturers will always try to help me. Enjoyed the practical activities they provide in the class.

The course is relatively comprehensive with a balance of both practical and philosophy in teaching.

Had a relative good experience with my practicum at both primary and secondary settings, and were grateful that the faculty was willing to assist me when needed to.

Classmates have been friendly and amazing and the athmosphere in the campus is often lively. Library was big and had substantial resources to complete assignments. It is very crowded but only on peak times (10am to 2pm). On other times, it is a great place to study and relax.

I was able to find work quickly in Melbourne that has allowed me to also find work quickly in Malaysia as soon as went there in 2019.

Pros
For a teaching course, it was a good balance of practical and teaching philosophy.
Cons
If you are unlucky, you might get a part time lecturer that may do activities that do not reflect what students want to do in certain subjects

Course recommendations
As I did Media courses, compared to the ones at my home universtiy the ones at Deakin are very good as they are very practical. The courses also vary between New Media like web page design courses to traditional photography and film courses. Very good as students can choose an area of media and follow it through.
