3 Reasons Why I Love My Program

Nine more weeks and we're done with our program! My first term was a blast while this term is better. I am glad I chose this program. Today, I would like to share with  you 3 reasons why I love my program:
  1. More in-depth topics:  Although this program is a condensed program of the 3-year program that is offered at Sheridan; the topics are more in-depth and relevant. There are so many things to learn and how I wish I can borrow SpongeBob for 2 more months so I can absorb everything that's being taught by the professors. I may not have saved everything that I learned but I made sure that I saved all my notes by the help of technology such as Microsoft OneNote, Google Drive and my laptop's hard drive. FYI, although there are lots of opportunities to learn, we are very lucky that we don't have to buy books. Who wants to read "academic" books, anyway? 
  2. Creativity: One of the reasons why I went back to school after working in the industry for almost 2 years was my personal goal to improve my creativity skills. I believe that creativity is learned when you have fun. I can still remember Albert Einstein who once said that "Creativity is the intelligence having fun". I have realized how important it is to be creative in one's life. This term, we have plenty of opportunities to enhance our creative thinking skills. Honestly, prior to joining this program, I sometimes find myself getting stuck on a particular idea for a longer period. I seldom get frustrated and disappointed. As a result, I give up. That's really a bad habit! But hey, I changed a lot because of this program.
  3. Great professors. I have a strong adoration to professors who "educate" students. My entire family and relatives are educators (My dad was once a university professor, my mom is a current grade school master teacher, my grandma was a teacher, my aunt is currently a school principal, 3 of my aunts are grade school teachers and the list goes on and on.), therefore, I understand how much effort that they have to do to ensure that their students understand the lecture. Sheridan advertising post-grad professors are exemplary. They go an extra mile just to ensure that we benefit from the program. They care and want us to be successful. They treat us as their own children. Yes, they get upset at us sometimes but it's normal. They need to discipline us if need be. If we are not paying attention (because we are doing homework that is not related to their class), they will tell us to stay away from doing unnecessary tasks. Yes, it's awkward but this helps us to be a better person (If I am a professor, I will probably do the same way too.).
I am satisfied and inspired. Although I sacrificed my full-time job just to go back to school, it's all worth it.
