A late hello from Australia
My name is Denise Findlay. Apologies for the late start. While an educator (and a GP) I work with adults in vocational training – namely doctors (registrars) who are training for general practice in Australia. This is quite a different setting to schools, but I have learnt a great deal from everyone in each of the courses I take – and I look forward to learning from you all.
This is my sixth MET course and looking at the posts seem to be in the middle of those of you starting (I remember trying to get my head around it all) and those finishing (I am jealous!). And I am in awe of those of you doing more than one subject – I tried to work and do two subjects and I plan never to do it again.
I love bushwalking and reading and for something different I collect stamps, covers and books on Antarctica.
I notice a few people from other courses and some new names – looking forward to exploring new ventures with you all.

Hi Denise and welcome! Better late than never. Your background is very intriguing and adds yet another dimension to what appears to be a very diverse group. I am with you in awe of those tackling more than one subject. Steady as she goes for me too. Best of luck.

Hi Denise,
Nice to meet you! This is also my 5th/6th course of MET. As I work with adult learners in a vocational training setting as well, I am curious of the stories and knowledge you would bring to us this term from the other side of Earth! I am sure I will be learning lots from you!
I do concur that sometimes I feel like not working on two courses, as it becomes rather straining especially towards the end of the term when everything is due at the same time! I completely understand why you have picked to focus on one subject at a time.
Cheers,
Sherman

Hi Denise,
It’s nice to “meet” you. Your hobbies sound really interesting. Have you been to Antartica?
