TESTIMONIALS

Page 15: Become a Special Education Teacher

Quitting my job as a lawyer to become a special education teacher was the best decision I’ve made – I have no regrets.

LISTEN TO THEIR STORIES

I’m honored to be someone students confide in, and can be real with about what they don’t know and what they can’t do.

Being the first in my family to graduate from college, receive a master’s, and work as a teacher has been the most rewarding experience.

This program prepared me to create a positive and challenging learning environment for all my students.
