As many of you know, I work at the University of Phoenix. I have been there for 2 1/2 years. For these past 2 1/2 years, I have been an Academic Counselor. I work with the same student's and help keep them motivated through their program, schedule their classes and answer any questions they may come across throughout their program. I have been doing this for a while, and I have decided that I am such a hypocrite. I started a program online about 1 1/2 ago, dropped out after Billy and I got married, then "started" back again last spring, but dropped out for the second time. It has almost been a year since I have completed a course, and that is just ridiculous! Especially since I try to keep people IN school!
But since it is still towards the beginning of 2008, I have made a new goal. I have started class TODAY!!!! and I will not stop until I have finished my degree. I can be done in about a year if I got straight through. I think it is ridiculous that I haven't stayed in there...especially since school is free for me!
I have changed my program once again, but for the last time. I have changed to education with an emphasis in curriculum and instruction in math. I figure I spend time at work tutoring my student's through math, so why not get paid for it. I plan to tutor elementary, junior high and high school student's in math once I quit my job and have kids (unless Billy strikes it rich, then we won't need my tutoring salary). I know that I will be more credible with a degree in math, and not just PE! Wish me luck! It is difficult to work full time and be in school, but it needs to be done! :o)

- Billy and I were married on September 22, 2006 on a beautiful day in the Oakland Temple! It was an absolutely perfect day! We were blessed with our two adorable twin boys on February 18, 2010. Marc and James are both great babies and we count our blessings. We love them both so much and it is a joy to have them in our family.

good for you kati!!!! you will be so happy when it is all over with and you are almost there... and you will make a great tutor! i think it is a wonderful idea and a perfect time before you have kids!!
Way to go Kati! We will probably finish around the same time, so we can keep each other motivated! :) Oh, and I did the elliptical tonight for 45 minutes. I am so proud of myself! Back in the swing of things...!!!
I'm so jealous and so proud of you Kati! You were always a smartie pants in math. I know you can finish it!! I'm so impressed with all you are doing!
I am right there with you. I finally told Ryan this last fall when the boys started school, that I was tired of working on my degree. So, I am working hard to get it done in time for August's graduation; this summer!!! I can hardly believe I am finally this close.
hey there kati. i tagged you!
Good work Kati! Way to "practice what you teach!" :D Keep up the hard work! Some days I wish I could go back to school... then I remember how awful it all is and I'm glad I get to stay home with an adorable kid. :D
