~“My Mentor, Joann Park has been nothing but amazing in helping me reach my educational goals. She is so happy, and caring and always eager to help me in any way that I need her to. It makes going to college so much more fun when someone is on your side cheering you on along the way. Joann has done an exceptional job at preparing me for everything I need to do; from my classes, to my exams and even PCE and DT. She makes sure I am set up for success and thoroughly makes sure I understand what I need to do. I would be lost without her. She has made a HUGE impact on my education. She is wonderful!”

~“Throughout my experiences at WGU, I have learned so much about the teaching profession, and I have learned a lot about myself. As I worked through courses, I realized my tasks did not feel like work, because I thoroughly enjoyed learning the content. WGU has helped me realize that I am on the right career path, I care so much about teaching even though I have yet to have my own classroom. My WGU experiences have prepared me for helping my future students learn and grow, and they have given me confidence that I can be a successful teacher. I have the faculty at WGU to thank for my successes. I am so appreciative to the Course Instructors, who have answered my questions, provided tips and recourses, and who have also set an example for what it means to be an effective and compassionate educator. I am so grateful for my Mentor, who has held me accountable, showed me continuous support, and who has believed in me throughout my journey.
