Doing well in class 13 months ago

Well, I did enroll in evening classes and am enjoying every second of it. I was a bit intimidated by my first assignment which is a draft of the final paper/presentation for this class, but I did very well in it. I cried and feared a horrible grade, but in the midst of all my emotional/psychological turmoil I pulled an A. This really helped me, as I realized that I am on the right track. I am doing something I love, and am moving a bit closer to my ultimate dream.

The class will be over in a few weeks, and then it will be time to enroll in a more classes. I am moving closer to my ultimate goal of attending graduate school

(I am all smiles at the moment)



Evening classes 15 months ago

Well, I found a program where I can enroll in evening classes. It is a program through a university where I can obtain a certificate to teach English as a second language to foreign language speakers.

This is totally up my alley. I am very interested in multiculturalism and literacy. I want to eventually find a program where I get involved in learning, and designing, curriculum for schools with a culturally diverse student body.

This program offers the opportunity of transferring the professional certificate into a university for credit to a masters degree in the same field.

Exciting, isn’t it?



I need to make a list of schools by the end of this month. 21 months ago

I had one when I graduated, 3 years ago. I think I should make another one, this time listing programs…being more a little more careful.

I am sure I will find the right one.

I want to contribute as much as I can to do field of education.



I am ready for graduate school 21 months ago

I am currently working at a very cool place and getting paid enough for what I do. I have been a nerd, I have a passion for social justice and really want to have an impact on the field of education…por lo menos contribuir un granito de arena para mejorar las cosas. I had everything ready when I graduated from UCB and chickened out of it.
I now miss the books, and my passion has began to haunt me…it keeps calling me.
