Robin Edwards

Robin Edwards came to Delaware Tech to "reinvent" herself and "become a productive member of society." She was in an accident in 2015, which resulted in her being unable to do the work she has done most of her life. She also wants to be a role model to her adult children. "I hope I will inspire my children to go back to college and get their degrees. I want them to look back and say, 'My mom did it, so can I.'" Robin also mentioned that she wants her dad to be proud of her.

Robin chose Delaware Tech because she knew it was a great school. "From the start, everyone here has been friendly, encouraging, and supportive to me. Delaware Tech is also less expensive, and it’s close to home. When I transfer to go for my bachelor's degree, I will be enrolled as a junior."

In the spring of 2018, Robin took elementary algebra, which was totally foreign to her. She was listening to her instructor, taking notes, and wondering what she had gotten herself into. "Through perseverance and spending many hours in the math center, I earned an 87 in that class. Although I have obstacles in my life, we all do; I concentrated on my school work and persevered." She made the Dean’s List the following semester, and improved to the President's List the next semester.

Robin advised students to attend classes, pay attention, and take notes. "If you don't attend classes, how are you going to learn the material? Go over your notes, go over your homework, and reread areas you have questions in. If you find you are having problems with the class, ask to talk with your instructor. Go to the tutoring center; there are tutors there to help you. You need to do your part when it comes to your education; you have to take responsibility for your grades."

After graduating from Delaware Tech, Robin plans to further her education at Wilmington University.
