I love my role as a WGU Senior Evaluator because it enables me to support the mission of competency-based education, ensuring that students truly demonstrate meaningful mastery rather than merely completing assignments. I value the opportunity to provide clear, purposeful feedback that helps candidates grow, build confidence, and refine their skills. Knowing that my guidance directly supports student success, career readiness, and lifelong learning is a gratifying and enriching personal experience. Each evaluation presents an opportunity to empower our learners and contribute to their academic and professional growth.
Lori B., Sr. Evaluator, School of Education
I was a teacher for 15 years (10 in Colorado and 5 in Chile), working primarily with English Language Learners. Language became a consequential part of my identity as a young adult after reconnecting with my family history and learning Spanish. I joined WGU as a result of my love of language, culture and belief that all teachers and students should have affordable access to education to improve their lives and be part of a community.
Kevin G., Sr. Program Mentor, School of Education
I truly love my role as a Program Mentor! It's incredibly rewarding to witness the meaningful impact my students make on their own students as they learn, grow, and progress through their program at WGU. Every day, I see them balance full-time careers, family responsibilities, and countless other commitments — all while working diligently toward a degree to better their lives. Their dedication is genuinely inspiring and reminds me daily that we are all capable of doing hard things.
Kasey A., Sr. Program Mentor, School of Education
As an Instructor, I love how I can focus on providing scaffolded support for each individual to grasp literacy content. My 'why' is supporting WGU students with one-by-one guidance and encouragement so they can build confidence with literacy content while receiving the support they need in a 1-to-1 or live cohort sessions. The most rewarding part of this role is watching WGU students realize their ability to succeed and identify their superpower of shaping classroom students towards a bright future.
Emily S., Instructor, School of Education
It's humbling to think that I teach our nation's teachers; that the theory and practice I discuss with students in phone calls or video chats will be realized for thousands of children throughout the US. I am helping WGU students learn how to break down the language barriers for their own K-12 students so that they can access education in a new language.
Marc W., Instructor, School of Education
I love being an instructor, especially those magical moments when students realize they're not alone in their experiences. That clarity grows from connection. A simple shared story can open the door to joy during a conversation. My passion is helping students carry that joy throughout their journey, reminding them why they started and that their stories matter.
