My Life at Vision

Hi everybody,

My name is Nurul Izzah binti Izam, you can address me as Izzah. This year, I am about 20-something-years old (ehem!). I come from Banting, Selangor, I am the youngest and the newest lecturer among all the DMI lecturers.

When I entered Vision College on the 1st July 2014, I believed my personal perspective about learning and education has changed. I left my job as a Research Assistant at Jabatan Pengimejan Diagnostik dan Radioterapi (UKM) and accepted the challenge of being an educator.

Being a lecturer, I expect myself to be good at sharing knowledge, experiences, and also be an inspiration to the students. This semester, I am teaching Physics, IT in Radiography, Radiographic Procedures III and Introduction to Health Service Management. Last semester, I taught Sectional Anatomy subject to DMI Semester 4 students. One of the things that gives me satisfaction about my job is when my students are able to remember the different organ names correctly and try to relate the medical terms in their daily life.

Another name for six pack is the Rectus Abdominis Muscle.” (feels like as if you are pronouncing one of the magical spells in the Harry Potter movie)


Here, in Vision College, I am not only a lecturer but I am also one of the Happiness Team member. Together with my team, we organised several events. Some of the events that we have organised were, the Orientation Week, Merdeka Day Performance and several indoor/outdoor activities.

Everyone is in serious mode. Paying attention to the performance expert (Mr.Foo) during the rehearsal of
Merdeka Day Perfomance, August 2014.

Okay guys,I have some idea. How about.........”
(Look how serious they are)

I like their outfit soooooo much.

With my dear colleagues.
Thank you for making the Merdeka Day Performance a great success.

Can you spot Ms.Elly and Ms.Murni? (You can hardly tell, right? Hehe..)

Now try to find me! :-)

Careful young man. Those are the REAL radioactive materials.”

Oh,how to use this hailer by the way? The event is about to start soon..”
(mode: nervous + almost panic)

“Can't help myself from being one of the young and bold students.”

As months passed by, there is one fact that I keep in my mind, that is my students come from a variety of culture, family and education background. How grateful I am, when my colleagues, especially the DMI family, help me a lot in my journey as a junior lecturer.

Xiexie nimen, thank you!


Warm regards,
