CONWAY, SC & GREENVILLE, NC,
Going back to school at age 43, being a mother of 3 kids, wife and full time employee, looked impossible when I first walked into Miller-Motte Technical College in Myrtle Beach. I registered in the Associate of Applied Science Degree program for Medical Assisting. In the first term of the program I had exciting and challenging classes such as Medical Terminology, where I learned how to read, write and pronounce certain words in the medical field using the correct terms for specific conditions, with a physician or a patient. This was L to R: Marie Windham, Giselia Belcher, Kristin Nave, and Meria Jordifficult for me because English is dan (far right) stand together at a recent open house. my second language. I also had Career Development, which taught me how to build a professional portfolio and achieve skills to aid in my success throughout college and my career. All of the teachers were very supportive and they believe in each student. I learned that I can do this and graduate from college. It means a lot to me coming from another country, with years out of school, to find a place like MMTC, with professionals who take the time to show that they really care, who help build my confidence, improve my skills and abilities to start a new career. - Giselia Belcher
