We hear from so many people whose instructor’s impact has reached far beyond their classrooms to help them change their lives for the better.
2018-2019 Excellence in Teaching Award Winners Announced
Each year, the University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies recognizes instructors who exemplify the SCS value of excellence in adult education. SCS Excellence in Teaching Award winners are nominated by learners who feel that their instructors have gone above and beyond to share their knowledge in a way that is particularly engaging, helpful and inspiring.
“Year after year we are so impressed and touched by the hundreds of stories that come in from learners nominating their instructors,” says SCS Dean, Maureen MacDonald. “We hear from so many people whose instructor’s impact has reached far beyond their classrooms to help them change their lives for the better.”
