Passive vs. Active Education

OWN YOUR Learning

Education vs Learning
It's how this industry works
Hands on, Videos, Reading
Just scratching surface

You should expect to struggle
You should expect to feel behind others
You should expect to feel overwhelmed

We have only 13 weeks.

YOU SHOULD EXPECT

Dealing with ADVERSITY

Give up
Get depressed
Blame others
Work hard, stay positive

Students who work the hardest and stay positive often surpass their "more experienced" peers.
