    Why did you come to Anoka-Ramsey?

    Answer

    I am a senior citizen and a life-long learner. Anoka-Ramsey has afforded me the opportunity to pursue my academic interests in my retirement years. My Spanish classes have enabled to communicate with professionals in Central America, facilitating my ability to invite them to visit and respond to their needs. 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.
