My name is William Young and I plan to earn a Master of Education in Human Development and Education with a concentration in Literacy and Languages at Harvard University. I am enticed by this program as I want to broaden my knowledge of education beyond the sphere of English Language Learning and into the myriad topics associated with oral and written language. I believe the zenith of my career can be attained by achieving my ultimate goal of becoming a prominent researcher and professor. This will allow me to be a leader in the field of education, exponentially share my knowledge and experience with future teachers, and facilitate a wider reach on culturally and linguistically diverse students.
