About ETC: Our Presenter

 

Sean Glassberg

Sean J Glassberg has over 18 years of academic and professional experience, ranging from teaching English at community colleges and universities to training industry and technical professionals to become educators. He created Educator Training & Consulting to improve post-secondary teaching after he saw firsthand the need to support faculty members who have had no formal introduction to, or training in, the Best Practices of College Teaching. As a full-time instructor at Horry Georgetown Technical College in Myrtle Beach, SC, he watched as the college hired new and adjunct faculty with limited teaching experience, only to provide them with a textbook, syllabus, and the command: "Go teach." He realized that something had to be done to ease the transition for these faculty members, both at his own college and many others. Since then, he has travelled across the country, working with faculty members at private colleges, public community and technical colleges, and universities.

Sean lives with his wife and four young children in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina.
