[I have] an example of a student who, previous to the summer trip did not have a focused direction for his future after high school, but now does. [He wants to be a scientist.]
You and this program (NITARP) have been truly remarkable and has already changed my life forever. I'm just waiting to see what happens next.
After this experience, I’m more aware that beyond just teaching my students good science, my focus should be to prepare them for a career in science.
