**It's never too late!**  It is never too late to advance yourself by gaining a college education and earning a degree. The opportunities are unlimited and with the availability of online classes in a distance learning program even a working Grandmother can return to school! Online classes provide even the busiest individual the prospect of obtaining a degree without having to physically attend a brick and mortar college. With the technology available today, a college education can be earned within the comforts of home. All that is required is the desire to learn, the willingness to devote the required time and the discipline to follow through the program. From experience, I have gained the confidence to achieve my dream while having fun and learning all at the same time. I recently celebrated the 19th anniversary of my 39th birthday but who's counting?!? As far as I am concerned age is just a number; it's the desire to achieve a goal that is important. In the online classroom, no one realizes that I might be old enough to be their Mother or even Grandmother, everyone is equal. So, let the learning begin!! I am currently not teaching, but I plan on returning to the classroom in an entirely different subject area than I previously taught. Numerous years ago I taught tole painting as well as oil painting. But after earning my Masters, the subjects I intend to teach online will be income tax preparation and algebra. Definitely a change, but due to my love of figures certainly within my comfort zone. I hope to transfer my love of these subjects to my students. Here's the link to my Animoto Kathy's Animoto This was a great little free project that pictures all the fun we have at the lake during the summer. The last two pictures show a little of my love of water skiing!! Hope you enjoy watching!!
