“Clemson was more than just a town or school for me–it quickly became my home. My college experiences helped me achieve goals I never thought were possible and shaped who I am today. The College of Education program built a strong foundation that allowed me to successfully launch my teaching career. As a college student, knowledgeable instructors planned and taught intentional coursework. Purposeful courses paired with classroom placements allowed me to work directly with students which helped prepare me for my own classroom. Choosing to attend Clemson’s College of Education was the best decision I ever made!”
