Hi my name is Rochelle



I had a week of Introduction into this course Certificates Education for Adult, which I enjoyed it is not only a new course to me but a new environment of learning education because this year is my first year at Tafe as I just graduated yr 12 last 2006 at Leeming Senior High School, I did not achieve a pass in all my five subjects that I was enrolled into, I was only able to complete and pass my favourite subjects which were the following Health Studies and Early Childhood Studies. Senior English, Modelling in Mathematics and Food production are the three other subjects, I was not able to achieve a pass as I have lack of knowledge, experience and skills in the subjects. I would like and need to improve on so I was hoping to gain it out this course (Certificate 1 Education for Adults) therefore I was not able achieve a graduation level to get into tafe course that I was hoping to get into this semester instead on doing this Education for Adults course. I would to enter a career in working with children; I have found that I have a talent with children from previous experience in childcare centres through my yr 11 course called Structured Workplace Training. This course gave me an opportunity in experiencing in the field that I would like to work in my career as job. I gained of knowledge too, studding Early Childhood Studies for three years through yr 10, 11 and 12 at high school. I will need to complete Certificate 111 Children in Services course which will take a semester to complete, after completing this certificate you will be able to apply for full time job in a childcare centre. My goal is to gain of this course is to improve my maths, reading and writing, Oral and Communication and computing skills and knowledge, hoping to achieve a pass in all these four units that I have enrolled of Certificate 1 Education for Adults this semester therefore I should be able to enrol myself into the Certificate 111 Children and Services course at Mt Lawly tafe as this tafe provide this course and hopefully be able to complete next semester so I can start applying for a full time job in childcare centre next year 2008. My interests are listening to music, dancing, shopping for clothes and other things that I want, watching movies and ridding my bike, these are some of the things I do in my spare time. I also love interacting with children as I have a lot of experiences and knowledge about them. I describe myself as brave, healthy, honest, caring, patient and organized person. My idea for my digital story, I would like to do my life story which includes photos of me as a baby until 18 years old my current age now .Mainly photos of my school life, family and special moments in my life. I have chosen these topics to do my digital story on as I have some photos that I can use to make my digital story and also achieve my life digital story for the task. I would like to use one song voice over played in the background of displaying the photos as a slide show, the song I would choose would symbolise my life of how I felt throughout of my life. My photos would be slide showed, showing close up views and be dissolved effect when played and changing photos. I also use subtitles while the photos been shown which will indicate what photo is about therefore it would be interesting to view and read when it is been played. I was born in Perth, Australia therefore I have lived here for 19 years as I am turning 19years old this year on the 23rd of December 1988 in King Edward Hospital at 2:30 am in the morning. When I was born I experienced heart surgery due to blocked valve in my heart. My parents were born in Africa as their parents lived there for a while and then they migrated to London, England, where my parents met and got married migrating to Perth, Australia. I have a brother and sister, my parents are divorced. I’m catholic and grew up going to church every Sunday mornings and still do, especially at Christmas and Easter time. My nationality is Anglo Indian therefore I also grew up eating Indian food but I prefer junk and Italian food as my favourite food now these days. I have travelled overseas to London for family reunion in 2004 Christmas time I celebrated my sweet 16th birthday there too. My mum and dads family still live there, I will be visiting my dads family who I have not met before at Christmas time this year hopefully after I complete my childcare certificate course. I enjoy also watching funny movies and being with people who have good sense of humour too. I hope you enjoyed reading my letter and interested in my ideas. I have done my best of my ability to answer all your questions from your letter, I apologise for writing so much I did not expect it to be two pages worth, I guess my interest in writing too although I have weakness in writing but I use writing mostly to express my feelings. I look forward in gaining skills, experience and knowledge to achieve a pass in this Certificate 1 Education for Adults. Kind Regards Rochelle
