Four Bachelor of Education Foundation Phase male student-teachers were selected for the purpose of this study. Venturing of males in Foundation Phase specialisation is phenomenon. Foundation Phase has been viewed as a female territory for many years. As a result, there are few males teaching in FP. The study employed the qualitative approach as a suitable approach. As the study sought to explore experiences, a phenomenological design was followed. In a true phenomenological design, unstructured interviews and personal diaries are used for data collection. In this study data were collected through unstructured interviews and personal diaries of the participants. I employed interpretivism as a research paradigm.129 leavespdfEnglishUniversity of Fort HareStudent teaching -- South Africa Teachers -- Training of -- South Africa Teaching -- South AfricaFolk music -- ZimbabweStudent teaching -- South AfricaTeachers -- Training of -- South AfricaTeaching --South AfricaTeaching -- South AfricaThesis
