Although the path was full of challenges, I personally feel privileged to have met and worked with people from various walks of life who have not only assisted me in overcoming some of the struggles as a first-generation college student, but have also inspired, coached and encouraged me to reach my goals and become the person I am today. I’ve always been drawn to education as the daughter of two teachers, and I am honored to be a part of my students’ journeys and I am grateful for the chance to not only guide them, but also to learn from them.Įver since I moved to this country, my dream has been to get a good education and use that knowledge and skills to help others through their journey of learning. Most importantly, I want to help my students and advisees see their potential and to guide them successfully through their education and career goals, breaking down barriers as we go. Becoming a College Success Coach at PCC allows me to devote more one-on-one attention and support to students to help guide them through their college career, and gives me a stronger voice to advocate for my students. I enjoy helping students learn how to refine their ideas into coherent, strong arguments and watching as they grow more confident in themselves. r/Portland is a subreddit for the Portland Metro Area but is not affiliated with the city or other local governments.After graduating from Portland State University with a Master’s Degree in English, I have been teaching writing and literature as well as advising and guiding students at several educational institutions for the past twelve years.
