What do you like about teaching at Lasell?
"I enjoy interacting with culturally diverse students in a small classroom setting and helping them with their writing through individual conferences. The colleagues at Lasell are also very welcoming and provide a supportive and warm environment. Lastly, I admire Lasell’s educational aim in providing students with hands-on life experiences through study abroad programs, internships, service-learning, and community-based learning."
