About helenh
Greetings and salutations, I am your friendly neighborhood Content Manager here at eLearners.com. (I am also mom to a seemingly tireless 3-year-old girl and owner to a cat that hates me. Oh well - can't win 'em all.) I have a bachelor's degree in computer science from Rutgers College and am thisclose to completing my master's degree in instructional design from Western Illinois University later this year. If you want to learn more about online education, read our Guide to Online Education. If you decide you want to go back to school, check out the Debt-Free College Guide to learn ways to pay for your education. Happy learning!
