A2LP has been such a fantastic experience over the past year and a half, and as an aspiring teacher, I can really say that I feel more prepared for what will come in my future, as a result of the program. The program gave me an opportunity to be in the classroom leading actual lessons before I even started at the School of Education, which has been fun, but not the best part of the program. The best part of the program, for me, has been the bonds that I have created with my students. It is amazing how impactful just an hour a week with these kids has made in my life.
