Sarah Reiman
Bachelor of Education (Primary)
CQUni gave me so many opportunities to see the practical side of what I was studying rather than just sitting in classes all the time and learning theory. Being a teacher, they gave me the constant support of going to prac and then they offered me the opportunity to go to Cambodia for a few weeks to teach over there. It was an incredible opportunity in so many ways. I got to see how people in Cambodia live and the way they learn is incredibly different to the way we learn in Australia. And they’re just they’re so grateful and eager to learn. It was a great experience.

The best thing about studying at CQUni was the small class sizes! You feel like more than just a number and you really have a relationship with the lecturers and researchers. There was a lot of individual care and support which really personalised my learning journey.
I have an analytical mind and CQUniversity enabled me to expand this ability to find problems within my field and ultimately, to learn how to fix them. CQUniversity really encouraged me to think outside the box and I really feel like I’m making a difference.
