Pre-Education Advisor
I get the pleasure of advising students who are Pre-Education majors, primarily those who are Freshman and Sophomores. I work with these students to help them be empowered to take control of their learning and take advantage of all the things that WOU has to offer. I meet with the students once a term to help them plan out their classes and answer any questions they may have. Along with this, I guide these students through the process of applying to our Professional Teaching Licensure Program.
Graduate Programs Advisor
Another role that I have at WOU is that I also have the privilege of working as an education graduate advisor. What that means is that I help inquiring graduate students learn about the various graduate programs that WOU has to offer in the field of education. I work with students to help them choose which program is best for them, along with guiding them through the application process.
