About Our Professional Studies in Education Faculty
Learning from the Good Example Set by Professor
"When I think of the ideal teacher, I think of Dr. Valeri Helterbran. She's organized. She always has a trick up her sleeve to keep things interesting, and she advocates for us, too."
Jacob Otto, Class of 2015, BSEd in Middle Level Education with a Social Studies specialization
