ACC Student Spotlight: Nate Bertz
Leadership, confidence, and lifetime friends are just some of the things that Nate has gained as an ACC student and work study employee. His favorite part about being in the ACC community is the amount of resources the school provides for student success. He always tell students, 鈥淭he key to great grades is time. If you have the time to dedicate to your education, and utilize ACC鈥檚 resources, you鈥檙e guaranteed to get A鈥檚 in your classes.鈥
And he continues to recommend ACC to anyone and everyone because if ACC can make a leader out of Nate, they can make a leader out of anyone. From the words of Nate, 鈥渂efore I was at ACC, I had zero leadership skills, professional experience, and a limited number of distant friends. When I came to ACC, I thought I was going to fail out like I did in high school. However, on my first day of class, my teacher told us all, 鈥淓ach one of you can get an A in my class. All you have to do is show up to class, complete your assignments, and learn for your experiences.鈥 I didn鈥檛 believe her at first, but when she handed me my first assignment, and I saw that 鈥淎鈥 on my paper, it proved that my past experiences don鈥檛 have to define me, and that I make my own future through hard work, and dedication.
Over the last 3 years, the staff at ACC have transformed me into the student leader I am today.鈥 Keep Moving Mountains Nate!
