“My coursework at Iowa Wesleyan provided me with the instructional strategies and classroom management skills that I need to be an effective teacher. The professors at IW are very knowledgeable and genuinely care about their students.”

“The classes I’ve taken at Iowa Wesleyan have helped convince me that I am destined to be a Special Education teacher. Working as a Paraeducator for the past 7 years and my classes have given me the confidence to take this next step in my life’s journey and I couldn’t be more excited! Thank you IW!”

“What set IW apart for me was the small class sizes and clinical hours. I felt like I was able to work closely with my professors and was well prepared through many hours of clinical. IW has impacted my career opportunities by making me well prepared for life after college.  I felt as though I was ready to start in the emergency department once I finished school. It has also helped prepare me for continued education. I attribute being accepted into my Doctor of Nursing Practice program at Clarke University to the preparation and encouragement I received from my mentors at IW.”

“I had a great experience at Iowa Wesleyan. I was guided toward an amazing internship that allowed me to apply what I was learning in the classroom to real world circumstances while gaining real world work experience. My Service Learning project allowed me to branch out in the local community and sharpen my networking skills, an invaluable experience with how important networking is in the job market post college.”

“I was wanting a college where I would have many opportunities to grow, have quality but personal instruction, and be in a supportive community. I found that and then some at Wesleyan. Iowa Wesleyan has also given me the opportunity to become more confident in who I am as a person and as a musician. I definitely made the right choice in coming here.”

“I went to a very small high school, so I didn’t want a large university. I didn’t want to sit in a large classroom and just blend in. At Iowa Wesleyan, all my teachers know me, and they know my goals. They are always there for me with the help and encouragement I need.”
