Breaking News! MNU is fully accredited by NCATE
There are many reasons for entering the teaching profession. For
some it is because of the influence of past teachers, for others
it is the love of working with kids, others it is the love of the
subject, and for some it is the love of the teaching-learning process.
What ever the reason, teaching is a wonderful field to enter. Never
has it been more crucial than today. You will have the opportunity
to work with students from all walks of life. While maybe not immediate
