<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.
