Why do you enjoy working with professional degree students?

Non-traditional, adult students bring their true passion and the wisdom of a life fully lived with them into the classroom. They're invested in their own education on a level that no other student group can match, because they already know what it means to move forward through life's difficulties, and they're here because they truly want an education for themselves. My teaching practice is enriched by the professional expertise, real-life experience, wisdom, and self-knowledge that each one of our adult learners brings -- every class is shaped by their presence and where they're coming from as much as it is my own perspective.
