Please get out of UOP right now. Find the student teaching on
your own. Try going to private or charter schools to do student
teaching. UOP is a rip off I had negative experience from both
the professors and the counselors last summer when I was going
to try to work on my dotorate in education. Please go to the
Care2 website and sign our petition for teacher forgiveness
loan. Thanks
