I decided to complete my Bachelor of Education at 黑料网 to teach youth who have been in conflict with the law. I was fortunate enough to have met some of my long-time friends in my undergraduate program and have been impacted by a variety of professors throughout my first four years. The professors showed me what it means to be passionate about a field of study and created a foundation for my learning, while allowing me to learn fundamental skills to prepare myself for the teaching career of my choice.
