Student experiences

Mount Cook, New Zealand“New Zealand has proven to be an experience of a lifetime. It has been undoubtedly the most unforgettable experience of my college career. Through my time spent here in New Zealand, I have grown as a person and as a professional. It has prepared me for what may lie ahead of me in my life and career. This has really helped me to discover that I have the ability to be a teacher who can really impact the lives of my students.  I know that I will take everything that I have learned these past weeks with me for the rest of my life. This was truly the experience of a lifetime, and I would do it again in a heartbeat!” — Tonya Keller, spring 2010

 

Rome“Before I went overseas, I never thought of teaching anywhere else besides Iowa. After going to Rome and learning about the international school setting, I now see other possibilities. Being away from home for two months was hard at first, but it has really shown me that I can do it on my own. I can take care of myself.  I am now interested in maybe one day working at an international school and not just in Rome.” — Jamie Payton, spring 2010
