“I knew moving from the business sector to the teaching profession would present challenges
I had never encountered in the boardroom. However, Kent State University’s MAT program provided
me with the knowledge and practicum experiences to make a confident transition. Professors
with practical classroom knowledge prepared me to face the everyday challenges encountered
during the first years of teaching.”

~ Robin Golden

“The opportunity to visit actual classrooms in both urban and suburban school districts and
work with experienced teachers willing to share their valuable insights gave me confidence as I
took over my own classroom.”

~ Melissa Martis McClelland
