What Students are Saying

“
I didn’t know what to expect being an online student. As I started my classes and started to post and start this conversation about the topic online, I was amazed at how free I felt to say anything that I wanted to say.
”

“
I wanted to get into gifted and creative education, and given my circumstances, I did a lot of research and it took me about four months…it had to be a good program from a good school and it had to be completely online. Fortunately, UGA offered all that.

“
Even though I only see them a handful of times a year, I consider my fellow students some of my dearest friends. You’re never alone. I don’t want to trivialize this degree and compare the program to summer camp, but that’s the mentality behind our relationships. I know I’ll have this loving network for the rest of my life.

I believe everyone should experience online learning at some point in their career because it does shape learning habits and skill sets in a different way that a traditional learning environment doesn’t.

I always tell my students to chase their dreams, work hard and never give up. What kind of example would I set for them if I were to give up on myself in the middle of the program? I was motivated because I want to be someone that they can be proud of, and that they can look up to.
