Hello, my name is Dr. Vinnese Kinard. As a UMKC student, it was a marvelous opportunity for me and my co-workers, and my friends. Our college was paid for and no cost to us. We, 30 students, were chosen through the KC Schools and the College to earn our Teaching Degree, even though most of us were between the ages of 40 to 65 years old. The program was called the (The Pet) program. Paraprofessional in the Teachers program. Most of us had not been in College in years. I continued my education through Faith Bible College and earned my Doctor’s Degree. If you don’t understand something, tutoring is fine, but try to refer to books that can help you, such as Middle or High School books with pictures that can help you with your class work. And that is what I did. By the way, I’m one of the Authors in the Book Voices of Women Unleashed in Justice. Chapter 18.
