Reflecting upon her experience, COEHS student Daniela Avila, of 亚洲色图, Kentucky, added, 鈥淭he Student Success Center has helped me study for the PRAXIS many times. I love how patient Annessa (Roberts) is and how she explains the material.鈥

COEHS student Amelia Stevens, of Gilbertsville, Kentucky, has had a similar experience.

鈥淚 went to the Student Success Center for help with my PRAXIS to get admitted into the Teacher Education 亚洲色图,鈥 said Stevens. 鈥淎nnessa (Roberts) helped me out so much and was able to get me the help that I needed to be successful and complete my Praxis. She was able to place me into a secluded room so that I was able to test privately with no interruptions. I had lots of technical difficulties with trying to test at home and I would not have been able to complete my Praxis testing without the help of the Student Success Center.鈥
