My WGU Indiana Journey to Teaching: April 2012

My favorite study buddy !

Yes, I must admit I find it difficult to study without some very good friends! The bad news is my best friends seem to be Caramel Frappes or on occasion a Caramel Swirl Iced Coffee with extra cream and sugar! Those 45 pounds I lost just might find me if I don't find some new best friends :) !

"The aim of education should be to teach us rather how to think, than what to think - rather to improve our minds, so as to enable us to think for ourselves, than to load the memory with thoughts of other men." ~ Bill Beattie

My Journey

October 1st, 2010, the day before my 42nd birthday, I began my journey to become a teacher.

After exhausting all hope of earning a degree, an answer to a prayer was bestowed upon me. The state of Indiana had a new school for people like me. I couldn't believe it! It all seemed too good to be true. I could work at my own pace, attend online and wouldn't go broke doing it. I had to find out more.

I called the WGU Indiana admitting department, and bombarded them with an exuberant amount of questions. After giving the admission department the third degree, I knew WGU Indiana was for me. The next day I registered, and after a whirlwind of transcripts, pre-admission testing, FASFA forms and more it was finished. I was a student on my way to fulfilling my dreams of becoming a teacher.
