Salem, OR

What does completing your degree mean to you? How do you feel it will improve your life and career?
It is a huge accomplishment. It has raised my self-confidence. Everything I have learned is applicable to my current position as an educator. I hope it will allow me to advance in my field of teaching and training adults.

Why did you choose to complete your degree online through OSU Extended Campus? What did you like about this method of education?
I am a single, working mother and the online campus meets my needs. It allows me to choose time for studying. I feel that online learning is more student-centered, which is perfect for me because I am a very driven person.

Did you have an instructor or advisor who was influential in helping you succeed as a distance student?
Yes, our instructor Jennifer Webster has been awesome!

What will your Ecampus degree allow you to do that you were unable to do before?
There are so many things! Among them are to continue to contribute to my teaching skills and abilities, and sharing knowledge with others.
