“Dear Andrea, Thank you being an amazing teacher, you have supported me throughout my learning journey and through all challenges I have faced. I am so grateful for the amount of time and effort you put into teaching, encouraging and supporting not only myself but each and every one of your students. I have always found it hard to focus and feel comfortable in social and learning environments until you became my teacher, you made me feel a strong sense of belonging and I am so appreciative. Thank you for making it possible for me to achieve my goals and for preparing me for my future career path. I wish you and your family all the best in the future and thank you to Lachlan for sharing his mum with all us, we are very lucky! Kind regards Jennifer.” - Jennifer
“My advice to other students if you’re passionate it just do it it may seem like it’s a lot of work but getting the practice in writing your observation in your assessments and learning from the trainers that have experience in the industry just soak it all in and get as much as you can out of that they’re there to help you. With me having dyslexia gives a lot of anxiety when it comes to study school kind of environments. I never really liked school because it was never really a strong point for me because of the fact that I severely struggled with reading, so when it came to deciding what I wanted to actually study outside of school for my career, choosing childcare and knowing the study and the learning and the paperwork that came with it really stressed me out and honestly I didn’t think I would get through it, but having the support of FYI, Marie and Andrea helped me get through it because they knew that I could and any struggles they helped and supported me. Now because of the support I’ve got I am going back to do my diploma which again never thought would happen but it is.” - Ash
“I have just completed my diploma in childcare. I have to say that I had the best experience with this company. Not only was my trainer Jordana terrific with answering my questions and taking her time to email me back straight away with her responses. I would like to say a big thank you to Jordana for her support and understanding. I would high recommend FYI to everyone, there course outline is amazing and get you ready to becomes a team leader or even a director. Thanks you FYI for my amazing results.”
