I'm a teacher, so it is hard for me to get out to the home and check on it daily.

A little depressed by the circumstances around me, I continued to save and finish my studies to become a teacher (my second passion).

But you have to WORK the meet & greet period, then be honest about where you are now, and what you’re looking to do in which specific neighborhoods [do your homework on local neighborhood value trends, time on the market, etc. so that you come across as someone worth a mentor investing her or his time working with]My local club was poor so I drove 3 hours to the nearest metro which had several, back when I was starting out as a wholesaler before law school enabled me to move up to commercial.

I agreed and stayed at home with my mom for another few years.That property basically set the backdrop for me to get experience as a landlord, learn how to deal with tenants, enable me to bank a nice chunk of change to buy my next investment.

I'm a 33 year old teacher, living in Massachusetts, married with two kids and a huge interest in investing in real estate. 

you'll have to wait another year for seasoning purposes before a bank will consider it an "asset" enabling you to make more investments.

The teacher in the coarse I took literally told us the first day you will not use 85% of what you learn in this class, so far its more like 95% lol.

Then make a decision if you want to learn from teachers, who teach from a set (books handed to them) or get a mentor from somewhere here.Ps my first house I didn't live in. buy what you can with positive cashflow and work your way as quickly as possible to a place you can live in.

Building relationships with as many of the senior commercial loan officers at the community banks will enable you to tap into as many resources as you can. 

How does a 23 year old teacher get into property investing in Australia with little money but a lot of time and dedication?
