Learning how to teach: teacher training, k12, leadership, secondary education training, curriculum development and more.

Even still, Illinois' nickname is quite adequate. Throughout much of the region, there are rolling hills and expansive prairies. This serves as the perfect backdrop for those students who prefer a great deal of calm with occasional access to big city life. Students can pursue degrees in relative quietude without getting sucked into the hustle and bustle of urban living. This also means that sporting facilities are of the highest caliber. When football season comes, the upcoming game is all some people talk about.
