Our Participants Talk About NITARP

  • Seebode

    [At my first AAS,] I felt like I got to meet a lot of people and learn some cool things, and think about how to best educate people. It feels like a lot of people with a common goal, very connected and leaving was kind of sad, like separation. Other than my group, I did not run into another NITARP teacher after Sunday; I don't think I realized how big this conference was.

    It has been a pleasure working in the program and with the other educators and students.
