Teaching

She who dares to teach, must never cease to learn…

Linda Aksomitis convocating from the U of R in June, 2007 with MV/TEd degree.

I convocated in June, 2007, from the University of Regina, with an MV/TEd (adult education) degree. My thesis work was on the preferred communication modes of students in nonformal online education and training.

My undergrad degree was also in Vocational/Technical Education with a technical major in serger sewing, a general major in English, and an Education focus as a teacher-librarian.
