Mohammad, RMIT, Victoria

“What we learn becomes a part of who we are”. 

A passionate future teacher, Mohammad came to Australia in May 2005. Born in Afghanistan, he lived in a remote area of the country with extended family members. With neither of his parents able to speak English, he juggles his study with supporting them with health care appointments and other services. 

Jacob, University of Wollongong

“The Teachers Mutual Bank Future Teachers Scholarship assisted me greatly in completing my first year of the masters in teaching program. The scholarship relieved the financial burden associated with full time study and allowed me to focus wholeheartedly on my university assignments and placements throughout the year. I would encourage education students from all backgrounds to apply. ”.
