The Center is pleased to offer a wide variety of services to all Wake Forest faculty. If you would like to schedule any of these or other services, contact Catherine Ross at x4559 or rossce@wfu.edu for more information.
Individual Consultations
Individual consultations can be arranged at any time by emailing or calling Catherine Ross, Managing Director of the TLC, rossce@wfu.edu, phone: 4559. What can you do in a consultation? A consultation can be anything from a five minute chat about a specific question or topic, to a meeting to go over student feedback and strategize a pedagogical plan, to ongoing meetings to design/rework a course, and also includes class observations and debriefing for those who want that type of feedback. Consultations are designed to fit individual needs and interests. The important thing to know about these consultations is that they are always non-evaluative and always confidential. We are here to support and nurture your talents and skills as teachers to help you achieve your teaching goals.
