FUNDING EDUCATION

LISTEN TO THEIR STORIES

One of the things I value most about my M.Ed. degree is that it’s given me the flexibility to leverage my background as an English teacher into a new career in text book editorial review and running my own tutoring company. Brianne Henry

I learned how to bring multicultural education into my classroom, and being back home has made that even more poignant because some of my students never leave their block, so they never see anyone else from another culture. Chaka Mason

Being a full-time teacher and student helped a lot because I could take what I’d learned at night in the master’s program and immediately infuse new techniques into my own classroom the next day –which was fantastic! Sean Antonetti

I chose this master’s program because it offered flexible courses that fit my schedule and the location of the campus. I live and work in a rural town on the outskirts of Atlanta and the program gave me an opportunity to explore the city. Tommy Jolly
