Chance to share my stories

I’m able to get to know my students on a one-to-one level, which isn’t as common at one of the large G8 universities. Here, I have the chance to share my stories as an Aboriginal academic to build trust with students so they feel they can talk to me. In turn, this helps us both expand our knowledge and skills.
