""As an Education major, I loved that SEMO got me into the elementary classroom my first year. Through their 4 Block Student Teaching program, I was slowly worked up to running a classroom by myself and giving me more confidence when I did so. Dr. Larry Bohannon was the best block teacher I had! He had a story of experience for any situation I faced/could have faced in the classroom. He made me feel comfortable and confident in his classroom and in my own classroom. ""
