Tips From Faculty and Staff

• Have confidence in your ability to learn from mistakes. 
• Attend to, and nurture your entire being as you prepare to become a teacher. Work to create balance in your life. Analyze and reflect on your own educational journey, as well as that of your families and ancestors, because these have influenced your beliefs, emotions, and experiences as a learner and teacher. Become the teacher you want, and expect, for your own children.
• Use revision to improve your life and the life of all living things around you.
• Think about who you want your future students to be and become.
  Always do the readings assigned for each class session before the class meets.  This way you will get the most out of your educational experience.
• I was a first-generation college student who majored in education as an undergraduate. Remember that you are doing more than completing a four-year degree. You are taking steps to become a professional. This program may be harder than other programs you could have chosen, but successfully completing it will make the hard work and sacrifices worth it in the end. Don't give up!!!
