 Hi, my name's Daniel Exoey. Currently I'm a teacher aid here at Lockheed Street High School. I was actually a student here from 2008 to 2012. I was school captain which gave me a great insight as to what actually happens or what goes on behind the scenes of the school and I think that's one of the things that really led me to want to be a teacher. Since then I've been studying a Bachelor of Secondary Education. I'm teacher aiding here up until the end of the year and then as of next year I'll be on the teaching staff here at the school. As a teacher aid, a regular day for me starts at 8.30 here at school. I do a staff room check with a lot of the teachers that I'm timetable on with that day just to see where I'll be most beneficial for them. Outside of school I have the odd game of golf even though I'm completely hopeless. Exercise pretty regularly whether that be swimming in the morning before school or going for a run or something like that. I'm 100% happy with the career I've chosen. Everything starts with education whether you want to be a doctor, electrician, working human resources or anything like that and basically I get to go to sleep at the end of every night knowing that I'm helping someone achieve their personal goals. To someone who's considering a career in teaching I'd say absolutely 100% just go for it. Every day I get to come in and I get to meet new people constantly, make relationships with these students and I get to see them achieve and I absolutely wouldn't change anything.
