While the experience within the various schools is extremely beneficial, the time within the classroom at Franklin College is also crucial. This is where one learns how to become a competent, caring decision maker as well as an effective teacher. The professors in the education program strive for excellence and desire to see everyone succeed. They put their students before themselves and spend countless hours preparing information and other materials that will assist with teaching strategies to help us become the best teachers we possibly can. - Kristin Davis '15
