“I have experienced several teaching scenarios led and facilitated by Alea. Alea is able to provide individualized attention while fostering a cohesive community approach to her dynamic teaching style. Alea demonstrates consistent practice of cultural humility and flexibility in her teaching approach as well as presence. The intentionality, experiential practices, and discussions that consistently are a part of Alea’s teaching spaces, promote increased commitment from her learners. Alea’s course on LGBTQ, provided me with much needed reference and understanding related to gender and sexuality, that not only assisted me in understanding other’s experience, but also understand myself more. When a teaching space intentionally transcends the context in which it initially took place, the learner is enriched in a way that then adds to their presence and ability to assist others. This is why I often try to take learning opportunities from Alea. ”
