They made sure that our study experience was memorable at Flinders through their never tiring efforts to help, support and guide us. Many of the topics I studied during my two years of study at Flinders have helped me tackle complex everyday situations I encounter in my job. Having an Australian degree helped me get my new role immediately – it really helped me stand out among the other applicants.”

“Flinders University stands out because I find the whole environment beautiful! The Bedford Park campus has a lot of greenery, especially where the Education building is located on the hill.
It makes me happy being close to nature, surrounded by trees, a lake, birds, ducks, and a clear, blue sky. I’m glad I chose Flinders – they have guided and supported me as an international student with resources and services that can help me cope with studies. Lecturers and tutors are supportive in my learning, particularly when I struggle to understand the requirements for any topic assignment.”

“I have to say; all my tutors and lecturers are really helpful – they provide me with active feedback and promote equality in the classroom.
They care about everyone in the class. I can always feel their understanding and support for international students like me – it helps me feel settled and comfortable. Throughout my degree, I had four placements, which means I will have had practical early childhood experiences from the first year of university. All of my university placement topic coordinators and liaisons have always been supportive and speedy in replying and giving feedback. I truly felt they were here to support me as an international student to achieve my best in an unfamiliar environment.”
