Gilberto Diaz Santos is a CCV instructor who teaches English for Academic Purposes in Winooski and online. He is also a coordinator of teaching and learning at CCV-Winooski.
They are mostly attended by new Vermonters and we enjoy sharing stories and insights from our original countries or cultures.
Fun, safe, and supportive.
I have taught English for Academic Purposes to students of different educational backgrounds and study disciplines for more than 30 years in two different countries.
It’s a supportive and collaborative culture. I also enjoy the cultural diversity of students in the Winooski center.
I have many life experiences to share beyond teaching. I have traveled a lot and worked as an event organizer, cook, roadie, photo/videographer, columnist, and now I have a YouTube channel with shows in Spanish and English.
Mary Ann Boyd is an online instructor teaching Conflict Resolution (COM 2360), Effective Workplace Communication (COM 1010), and Death and Dying (PSY 2130) in the fall 2022 semester. She has previously taught Interpersonal and Small Group Communication for CCV and Human Intimacy and Sexuality at another VSCS school.
I am always looking for what students have done well. Always! Though I will work to help you flourish and grow, I also recognize the strengths which you already possess to help you meet your goals. I’d also add that I make it MY goal to empower each and every student I work with, recognizing that learning is not a “one size fits all” experience. It is my job/role to understand your learning needs and to meet you exactly where you are.
Flexible, supportive and responsive.
I am a Vermont Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) who has significant experience as a mental health professional, having worked with individuals, couples/families and groups in community mental health settings as well as private practice. In addition, I have experience as a home health/hospice social worker.
I began my own educational journey at CCV as a non-traditional student and gained confidence as an adult learner. CCV, and the wonderful instructors I had, believed in me when I most needed supportive guidance, and for that I am truly grateful. I am honored to pay that forward, witnessing the next generation of CCV students grow and flourish.
I teach ZUMBA, I’m a golfer (I’m not great but I keep trying!), and I am a major dog (and cat) lover!
Stephanie is an art instructor who teaches drawing I, painting I and II, sculpture, introduction to studio arts, and landscape in art at CCV-Middlebury.
My classes lean heavily on technique. Most of the classes I teach are introductory and rather than focusing on conceptual work, I teach various tools and techniques that will empower you on your own artistic journey. Making art is a labor of love, but it’s also a lot of very hard work
Difficult, demanding, and rewarding.
When I’m not teaching, I’m working in my studio. I’m represented by several galleries across the country.
I have backpacked through 23 countries (mostly solo)!
