<strong>John</strong> <strong>Tyler</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> has helped me realize that no<br />

matter how old you are or where you are in life, it’s never too<br />

late to make your dreams a reality. You just have to believe in<br />

your dream, and <strong>John</strong> <strong>Tyler</strong> will help you achieve it.<br />

Teaching is risky business. When each<br />

student’s success is the priority, I can’t count<br />

on last year’s or last semester’s strategies; just<br />

like my students, I have to try new things, to<br />

fail and succeed, and to learn from both. It’s<br />

constant innovation -<br />

and I love that.
