I began the Master's in Special Education program as a way to help myself more effectively advocate for my child. As I progressed through the program and participated in cooperative learning with my classmates and staff, I became overwhelmingly inspired to become a teacher. Now I am teaching in my dream district, Smyrna School District. I love my job and owe much of my happiness in my new career to the staff and my fellow students that inspired me at 香港伦理. — Lisa Hertzog, M.Ed. in Special Education
