I chose LTC because of convenience. I was unsure of what I wanted to do and where I wanted to go. At LTC, I learned to meet and deal with new people. It was an excellent networking opportunity, and I'm still in touch with several classmates and teachers.
I enjoyed my time at LTC. It was great for me to get a lot of my general classes out of the way and it is where I decided to pursue a degree in education. My degree is in social studies, and I took several classes with Ed Fitch and Rod Harmon. Those two instructors played a big role in my becoming a teacher. I have been a seventh grade teacher in Robinson for the past 11 years.
Attending LTC was such a positive experience for me and one in which I am truly grateful. It allowed me to take the classes I needed to transfer to a four-year university at a fraction of the cost, while still providing quality education. The small size of the school and the classes allowed for personal interaction by caring faculty and staff, while also allowing me to gain valuable social experience with peer counseling, tutoring, club participation, and the music program. My time as a student at LTC showed me the major benefits of community college, and as a current employee of Henderson Community College, that experience helps me better serve the students with whom I work.
I chose LTC because after 20 years of jobs, I was ready for a career.
