“Walking into a classroom of 15-year-olds is daunting, but my professors prepared me with the theory and practice I needed to create relationships with my students, cultivate a positive classroom environment and truly teach from the heart. I wouldn’t be the teacher, coach, or club leader I am today if my Education professors hadn’t sharpened my skills and encouraged my passion.”
