I have been researching teachers’ competencies, especially for children with special education needs (SEN). My current focus is the competencies of SEN teachers in guiding SEN children to access inclusive classrooms. I have published my doctoral research in many journals in Indonesia, and I am still trying to publish internationally. I like teaching pre-service teachers because I can influence them to be better teachers for SEN children, whether working in a special or inclusive school. The Doctor of Education (EdD) program helped me become a better researcher and educator. It improved my research capabilities, academic writing and teaching skills. Working with Hong Kong academics has taught me to have more fun in an educational environment. In the future, I want to collaborate with other EdUHK alumni. For example, I plan to work with another graduate with a sports focus.
