I was injured half way through a class and needed to take an incomplete. The teacher was very compassionate. If I need help, people are usually there. Instructors offer a lot of support, advice and constructive criticism to positively aid their students. Last summer I was in the hospital and my instructor showed compassion with my situation and allowed an incomplete.
Most teachers demonstrate caring and personal attention.
My daughter has a learning disability and Oakton is trying to work with her to give her education relevance and yet deal with her problems. Oakton has very little compassion when it comes to parking in the lots. When there s snow, we get plowed into our spots and nobody is then willing to help. Talking with teachers. I like the fact that Oakton will do whatever it takes to help a student out.
