Profile
Sonia Pranatha
I was interested in graduate research study at FoE because it is the place where I began my journey in early childhood education. I did my Master of Teaching (Early Childhood) at FoE, and learnt so much during my time here. It was also during this time that I found my interest in doing research. The time that I spent at FoE had pushed me to broaden my understandings and perspectives on the issues that exist in the early childhood education field.
