15. 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.
