“Let’s not set our goals for the top of the mountain, and celebrate when we reach its base. Let’s actually climb the mountain”
– Nick Gilly
Nick Gilly, Ed.D.
I believe in people. Upon moving to Europe I used to feel down due to the inability to fully express myself in language. I learned quickly that demonstrations of kindness, helpfulness, joy, and love superseded perceptions of my academic degrees, former job titles, or witticisms. Being accepted was based on the former, not the latter.
Reflection brought me to see the prominence that cultural competence plays in life and educating students. Gilly Ed is a blending of my passion for learning, culture, and people. I seek to use my expertise in teaching and learning to share with others the importance that integrity, acceptance, communication, common-good, and care plays in their future success of students.
In todays world, with today’s challenges- I can see nothing else more relevant.
