Because I’m a full-time mother, wife, and work as a teacher's assistant, I don't have a lot of time to sit in a classroom. I have wanted to go to college and find a better paying job for years, but I never had the time. One of my children has already graduated college and the other is a junior in high school. Now it’s my turn!

I live in Smyrna, which would mean a long drive for me if I had to attend classes in Rock Hill every day. With the online classes, I can work at my pace and when it is convenient for me. If I have a problem with something, I e-mail the instructor and get a response, just like asking a teacher in a traditional classroom.
