Scholarship of Excellence in Teaching Fellowship
The Scholarship of Excellence in Teaching Fellowship: Program for Transforming Student
Success is a structured and supportive environment to enhance teaching and to promote
student success.
What Faculty Are Saying...
“Within the first few weeks, I learned more about my teaching, my students, and myself than I learned in 15 years of professional development. Teaching is so much more than content, and I cherished the opportunity to share ideas with faculty across all disciplines to improve student success.”
Andi Steelman, Math Professor
“At a time where I felt isolated and in a silo, SET provided an amazing space to share ideas and connect with colleagues across disciplines and campuses. The learning, growing, and developing that happened throughout this experience has forever changed me, and I am forever grateful.”
Brandon Wallace, Education and English Professor

When was the last time you set time aside just to reflect on how you could have done something better? And when was the last time you were able to chat with colleagues and share your teaching methods and results?
As mentors and teachers, we want to make a clear, tangible difference in the lives of others, including our own.
The Montgomery College Scholarship of Excellence in Teaching is a structured and supportive
environment of reflection to enhance
teaching and to promote student success.
