#On Moving Forward
Nicole Mitchell signed up for the Library's GED Test® Prep classes so she could apply for college.
"You have to have your GED or a high school diploma to move forward," she said. "My aunt, she lives in the area. She knows a lot about adult learning and she recommended Jacksonville Public Library." We're so glad she did!
"So Many Possibilities"
Nicole admits that she was most nervous about the math portion of the GED Test® but she credits her instructor at Jacksonville Public Library's Center for Adult Learning with helping her focus and building her confidence. "I was afraid," she said, "My teacher [told me], 'Take your time... if we can't do it this way, we'll do it that way. We'll work it out so you know how to do it.'"
Now that she has her GED, Nicole feels like so many opportunities have opened up for her. "There's nursing, college, the military... [but] I think I will do nursing. I've always loved nursing," she told us.
