    Why did you come to Anoka-Ramsey?

It also helped me to become an ESL tutor for Minnesota Literacy Council. And this year it has enabled me to earn my certification as a Master Naturalist.

    "Anoka-Ramsey has been a blessing in terms of teacher-student ratio. For example, in many other colleges, universities and institutions, a student just feels like one among the masses and there is not much individual help available when needed. Here, whenever a problem arises, me and other students can simply get the help we need."

    "It was so reassuring to know that if I have a question or need help, resources and counseling were always accessible. There were opportunities to participate in clubs and senate for every student. Most important to me was the access and ability to communicate with my instructors when I needed extra help or had a scheduling conflict."
