Van Ceu Lian Fambawl

Primary School

My name is Van Ceu Lian Fambawl (often refer to as Van) – 22 years old male, originally from Burma. In June 2013, I arrived in Coffs Harbour with my family as a refugee. Straightforward, I started Year 9 from the third term, and in November 2016, I completed my High School studies at Coffs Harbour Christian Community High School, obtained a Graduation Certificate, and I also had the opportunity to study Preparing for Success course at Coffs Harbour Senior College, and now I’m currently studying (third year) Bachelor/Arts of Primary Education at Southern Cross University. I love working with children, and thoroughly enjoy the story they’d have to share about their school life, holiday, and even the little thing they do that they’re so proud of. I have been helping many kids from my community, and I must admit that children are a very different individual characteristic from adults: active, enthusiastic and curious. As the undergraduate trying to fulfil the dream of teaching in Primary Education, I want to help students learn the way in which they learn best. I strongly believe each student have different ways of learning, and therefore, I believe, my responsibility as the educator is to scaffold and guide the learning abilities that will help them achieve higher achievements.
