Finding the Best Fit University for You (with Ashley Miller) (ages 12–18)

Sat 25 January 2025 @ 14 h 00 - 16 h 00

Explore the university options available and which ones fit your learning style.

What’s your learning style? Are you a city mouse or a country mouse? How can you maximize your potential for growth when you head off to university? You should have a “dream,” a “reach,” a “target,” and a “likely” school on your list as you plan for university. What do those terms mean, and which schools would fit those descriptions for you individually?

One-on-one coaching on career exploration and college list building will be available for those who attend this presentation.

About Ashley Miller: Ashley Miller started her love affair with both the English Language and teaching at Bucknell University. After a brief stint in show biz as the talent assistant for actor David Morse, her career as a teacher began, with her time in the DC Public School system earning her a “teacher of the year” nomination. Prior to leaving the United States, she was the Education Enrichment Specialist at Project H.O.M.E in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In France, Ashley has been a member of the fac at both CentraleSupelec and Universite de Lorraine (lectrice), a board member of the American Women’s Group of Paris, a volunteer at Caritas Moselle and Enfants du Monde, and a proud member and judge of the Paris Spelling Bee at the American Library. In addition to getting her M2 at the Université de Strasbourg in “Technical Communication and Localization” (TCLoc), she is in the final throes of her college counseling certification through UCLA.
