ratingYour study experience

I only have two more classes and the internship to go, and I'm so glad I decided to try this program. I compared the curriculum to traditional schools nearby, and it was so much better. I wanted a program that focused more on second language theory rather than simply educational theory, though I did learn a little of that here, plus I found the foundational class, reviewing the history of second language instruction in the US, really interesting and enlightening. The classes require a paper a week with a few discussion questions to answer and talk with the other students, and two of the papers every class are group papers. Surprisingly, group projects with other students works better than you might think. Classes also require a journal discussion of the readings, some of which can be really heavy. I took some in person classes at a local university about 5 years ago, and I did so much more work at GCU in comparison. The textbooks were superb, and classes gave lots of other resources we could use for further reading on the subject. The class website was really great.
