Master of Arts (MA) – On campus
My experience at UBC has been great! I am surrounded by wonderful peers who are helpful and encouraging and also push my understanding. The professors and staff members have been supportive and ever so helpful! I started my journey teaching children in low-income urban India. Post the experience, I started working in a variety of roles within several non-profit organizations in program design, curriculum development, and impact assessment, with a strong focus on diverse environments in both urban and rural areas of developing nations. While I have had the privilege of working with children and youth across a broad spectrum of areas over the last 13 years, I quickly realized that in my professional experience, I was attempting to fill in the gaps. This led me to realize the need to focus on the Early Years as a strong foundation to support their later years. That’s when I decided to pursue further education in ECE.
