I enjoyed learning about the tools to utilize how to understand and help children and adolescents during their development. I am taking this course as one of the last few necessary for completing my degree in psychology. I work three jobs, all of which relate to the field.

It is my responsibility to keep the residents safe while implementing...

I also work as a substitute teacher and one-to-one aide at the school associated with the RTC as a side job, where I get to work with the same group of young women.

I do a lot of the same work with this job as I do with my full time job, however with an even younger population. This course will assist me in gaining further insight that I may apply when gaining a better understanding of the development and background of the young minds I work with each day and how those experiences affect the present.

At Texas Southern University, I completed my M.A in Sociology. There was where I met some of the university's most intellectual minds and the professors were well-versed in the subject matter. The professors did not make the journey of completion easy but when you are passionate about your studies, the work isn't viewed as difficult. I've completed very fulfilling projects and will soon be in the process of using those very tools that were gained and created to help me in the completion of my second... Read More master's. I had a great experience in my graduate studies and all of my former professors have become lifetime mentors.

The Arizona State University is a remarkable university that offers a great number of Doctoral, Graduate and undergraduate degrees in many different fields.

I attended the University of Toledo for my Undergraduate degree and my Masters degree from the years of 2009-2017. The University of Toledo provided me with many opportunities I would have not received at other institutions. I was born and raised in the city of Toledo. The University of Toledo allowed me to feel as if I was attending a college that was not attached to the city I was born and raised in. During my undergraduate career, I was very involved on campus through many different organizations.... Read More The amount of organizations from all walks of lives that UT has is probably the best selling point. They have over 250 student organizations. I was also able to study abroad during my undergraduate career as well which UT helped make it very affordable. I think the best part of my time at the University of Toledo was the networking aspect. I was able to meet so many influential people not only at the university but also within the community. I think the biggest learning opportunity for the University of Toledo would be with student diversity. The university of Toledo is a PWI (particularly White institution) which becomes very visible when you look at the different funding of organizations. For example, the Latino Student Union and the Black Student Union receive about half of the funding the members of IFC and PANHEL recieve. As a Hispanic student, there were many times that I felt I couldn't find anyone on the campus that looked like me or came from a similar background as me. Overall, my time at the University of Toledo I thoroughly enjoyed and it prepared me for my upcoming PhD.
