Julie Gauley is a graduate student in biology. Apart from her studies, she is also working in the teaching resource office as a Teaching Assistant Developer. Says a citation: “Her hard work to help the students as much as possible has been appreciated by her students, professors and colleagues. Her pre-laboratory talks and tutorials engage students with open-ended questions creating a friendly atmosphere and ease for the students to get answers to their queries.” Her supervisors and students write: “Despite high expectations, students do not fear Julie at all because equalled in her expectations of them, is her high expectations of herself as a teacher.” Many of her former students are now undergraduate TAs themselves, the citation goes on, “and they have always found themselves to be extremely lucky to be taught by an exemplary role model such as her.”
