Almost at the other side!



“Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.”

Jim Rohn quotes


Wow. I'm simply amazed that I made it through 643 and 644, not to be premature, I have the livetext portfolio and the literacy event, but the addendum is done! I'm glad I didn't quit in the fall. I was extremely close to walking away because I was so scared of finding a student, getting them to UOG, doing testing in a subject I had very little background information, but I did it. And I thank God, Dr. Rivera and my classmates for being there for all of my questions and struggles! I know if I ever walk into an interview, I will be able to speak to them with confidence in my skills and be able to impart knowledge upon them! I CAN DO IT! Having said that, I am going to try and finish my TESOL degree first, and then if time and money allow, come back and finish my Reading Specialist. I only have fifteen credits in the TESOL program left, so I'm going to try and finish that in the next year and a half. We shall see. It's been a great week, and I'm looking forward to the Family Literacy Event and finishing the Livetext portfolios. I feel good. I'm also happy that after two years of long work, I've got my ESL certification, and it was paid for by MLI! That's the best part.
