I am currently pursuing my Master of Education specializing in TESL as it’s relevant to my career where i operate a kindergarten and an after-school care center. Even though my workload is heavy, it never stops me from furthering my studies. I gained my confidence in pursuing my Master’s from the regional office staff. They have been very kind and helpful to me. Doing a Master’s with WOU was fun and not dreadful at all.The helpful lecturers and course coordinators were always willing to give me guidance and advice. I would like to thank WOU for making my dream come true.
