Jayme Rozeboom
Education major from Lester, Iowa

Headed for school
Following in the footsteps of his father, Jayme wants to be a teacher and coach. An elementary education major, he is also earning endorsements in coaching, reading and special education. The quarterback for Northwestern’s Red Raiders, Jayme has also been active in intramurals and discipleship groups.

At home
I chose Northwestern because it felt like home immediately when I stepped on campus. I wanted a place where I could grow as a man and more importantly, a man of Christ. Northwestern offered that and more.

Front of the class
The education department has really emphasized that I don’t have to be a missionary to fulfill God’s purpose in my life. No matter where I am or what I am doing, I can make a difference to further God’s kingdom. As a teacher, I will be an example for a countless number of very impressionable kids. What an opportunity!

Star teachers
I really appreciate the drive and passion of the education faculty. Each class is small, so the profs have the opportunity to get to know students on a personal level. They want you to strive to be the best you can be, and they make it known. I can’t say enough about them. They have a lot of teaching experience and know what it takes to be great—and they are also very energetic and fun-loving.

Lessons for life
Northwestern has given me more than an education. It is helping mold me into the man God wants me to be. The experiences I’ve had here will impact the rest of my life in my roles as a teacher, a husband and father, and a follower of Christ. And the college is giving me all the tools necessary to be the best teacher I can be.
