Why did you join MTC?
For three reasons: First, I want to teach, and MTC was the best alternate-route certification program that I found. Second, I believe that Americans cannot afford to “pass the buck” and let government deal with our society's many problems, but should lend a hand where they can… something that I am in a position to do. Third, I like to help people, and I like to have new experiences – two things I am sure I can accomplish with MTC.
