Think College Vermont

As the first Think College student to study abroad, I believe my trip to England was a very fun and enlightening experience.  Our group was studying education in the English countryside, at a primary (elementary) school in the town of Emerson’s Green.  Being a in library science, I did some cataloging work in their library. It was quite interesting to learn the school library system in another country, finding it somewhat similar to ours in America.

As for the rest of our trip, we had to alter our itinerary due to the pandemic.  We spent a great deal of time touring Bristol, seeing its many sights and trying its foods.  Despite ankle pain I got from my new shoes, I enjoyed it a great deal. It was certainly worth the difficulties. By David.

Chace says, “I get a lot of support from my mentors outside of class with my Stern Center work. They help me understand the reading and the math problems. I also get help on papers I need to do for my classes. During class, my mentors help me understand the materials, dances and pilates moves.”

 My  mentors   help me study  by powerpoints and    taking notes in my class   as my mentors supports My  mentor takes class notes and  skim through my reading homework Madeline

In ASL class I am learning that American sign language is important for deaf culture. Because I learned a new word, Audism. That means making fun of deaf people. I am learning how to sign so I can understand my other friends that sign.

In effective speaking, I am learning that you need to speak loud, clear, and slow. It is giving me the skills to speak publicly. From a first year student Sophia.
