My students come from diverse backgrounds wanting a better future for themselves. I provide an environment where they can come and learn important skills to include but not limited to; study habits, motivational tools, and general life skills such as college readiness, career readiness and the gift of giving. These come easy for some, however some suffer because of the stresses of everyday life. Many are credit deficient, and working in a computer lab on an Online class can be and will be difficult for most. However, many students that I see on a daily basis come prepared to work hard, try to stay focused, and are willing to accept the past that caused them to miss out on credits. My students are persevering to graduate despite life challenges.
