Q&A with Victoria Henshaw

Victoria is training to teach History after discovering a love for teaching through university supervision.

The course has really helped formulate what I want to do in schools and how I want to teach, and in fact, our lecturer has said that this is time to think about what kind of teacher you want to be. It gives me the time to think about what kind of focus I want to have. The course gives you the tools to go forward and do that, even if you haven’t decided just yet and I think that’s what I found valuable about IOE – it’s really laying a foundation that I can use in a very practical sense.

Everything you learn can be taken straight into the classroom and it can be applied immediately.
