Molding Top-Notch Professionals
"UNCG's School of Education has a reputation for excellence. It's great being an adult student here at UNCG. I have enjoyed the internships and getting to work directly with teachers and students in area schools. I also love the class discussions and interactions with professors."
A Passion for Learning
"I would like to make a difference in the lives of kids and families that have been traditionally thought of as being incapable of succeeding. I believe that teaching young kids is how I can make the biggest difference."
Inspired to Teach
"My ten year old son and five year old daughter have been my greatest inspiration. They have taught me that you can't take yourself too seriously and you need to have a good sense of humor. A love of life and a good sense of humor are part of who I am, and these qualities will be evident in my role as a teacher."
