I have great students.
Now, I must also note that one of the things that is most rewarding and most frustrating about working in education is students. In part because they are still young and so very focused on ME.
But, this past semester I have worked with a great group of students and have even gotten a few emails this week from students thanking me for helping them work to study abroad! That is so nice to get that thank you!
In our work, we really try to make everything great for students and we know when things are not right and when the student has helped or not done something. And often, when something goes wrong, it's not our fault or the student's fault, but something in the chain of multiple people we work with. (ex, if I need to confirm a class at a university abroad, they need to go through their chain of people, plus we need to account for time differences- so it may take a few days in the end to get a reply)
So, thank you for the thank yous and always let us know what help you need because (even when it's very frustrating to you and me) we are here to help and REALLY want to help!!
