MeetOurNewMentorshipLeader!

My name is Amalia Kouloglou and I am in the School Counseling program. Currently, in addition to my courses for the spring semester, I am completing my practicum at Great Neck North Middle School. I also work as a special education teaching assistant at a public elementary school, which has been a very meaningful experience in having the opportunity to help children individually and in small groups I was excited to learn about the opening for this position within the mentorship committee since I was involved in mentorship initiatives as an undergraduate student while obtaining my B.A. in Mathematics (7-12). So far, during my first year as a graduate student at Hofstra, I’ve been very fortunate to have been matched with a great mentor who has been supportive, friendly, and helpful. I hope to pay it forward and create more opportunities for Hofstra’s MHC and SC students to participate in mentorship. Ideally, I believe that mentors and mentees can help one another while having the chance to strengthen relationships among students within their programs. I hope to meet more of you at future events. Wishing you a wonderful semester!
