After two years at Benedictine, I decided to change majors from computer engineering and go into teaching. I had not taken an education course and had only taken two social science courses the first two years of college. My advisor helped create an academic plan where I would change from computer engineering to history with a minor in secondary education and still graduate in four-and-a-half years. The job hunt from college to the workforce was very seamless for me. I was a student-teacher at Addison Trail High School and after graduation, they hired me to fill a vacancy the following fall. During my student teaching experience, I was able to demonstrate to Addison Trail all the skills and qualities that go into being a good history teacher — all of which I learned through Benedictine’s program.
