Student Endorsements...
"I have had the opportunity to be a student of Tricia Ziegler for the past
year. My experiences in Ms. Ziegler's classes have been wonderful. Ms.
Ziegler is a very dedicated and knowledgeable instructor. Anytime a student
needs help, Ms. Ziegler will make time to help them. It would be an honor
if I am given the chance to be in another class taught by Ms. Ziegler."
-Susan Hall
"I believe Ms. Ziegler is a wonderful teacher. She has wonderful rapport
with all her students. Her ability to connect with her students and her
talent at teaching simple concepts and making them fun, as well as more
advanced topics are both truly superior. She made my semester in Biology
interesting, fun and educational at the same time."
-Ashanti Coulter
"Mrs. Tricia Ziegler cannot be described in just a few sentences. She is an
outstanding teacher and leader at Wright Career College. She taught my
Computer Applications class. I had the privilege to have private tutoring
with her as well. She is very smart and knowledgeable of her job...her
teaching capabilities are exceptional"
-Miesha Powell
"Ms. Tricia Ziegler is the best instructor I have had here at Wright. She
loves her students and cares about them and their education. She is a very
caring person. She loves the subjects that she teaches especially Biology.
I did not like Biology but she made it fun. She was also my Computer
Application Instructor and she even made it fun. She can make any subject
fun and it makes you enjoy coming to school...She always has a smile on her
face and when she sees me in the hall she always speaks."
