Student Profiles
Sano Chuaprasert, Thailand
Diploma of Hospitality Management
"I really enjoyed my studies at TAFE WA. The teachers are helpful, friendly and easy to talk to. I started with commercial cookery and I learnt a lot about food. I am now doing hospitality management, it is very practical and I get to meet a lot of interesting customers. This course has made me very confident in the hospitality area."
Sharon Chen, Singapore
Diploma of Children Services
"The course I am studying is very good and practical, especially since there is a lot of hands-on experience which I do not get to do back home. The lecturers at TAFE WA are very helpful, friendly and encouraging especially when I feel I might not get through the course. Whenever I need advice or someone to talk to, I always go and see the international student coordinators and they give me all the help and support that I need."
