(’24)

I can't explain the level of relief this has given me as I enter postgraduate life. I recently completed my Student Teaching Internship at Cardozo Education Campus, so I am currently in the interview process with a few DC Public Schools. I am hopeful that by graduation, I will receive a full-time offer to teach middle or high school English Language Arts! Thanks to you, I can now focus on my interviews without extreme anxiety, and I am forever grateful for that.
