Wayne State College is helping me prepare for my future by teaching me in classes using real-life examples and simulating realistic scenarios that I may encounter post-collegiately. Especially in my major-specific classes, my professors are great at explaining how what we are doing applies to the real world, and how the material can be applied in the workforce. My professors are also great at thoroughly explaining the material, encouraging safety protocols, and ensuring that I understand the material before moving on so that I get the most out of my education.
