Louisiana Association of Business Educators Named Linda Thornhill Postsecondary Teacher of the Year
Lake Charles, Louisiana – Thursday, March 31
SOWELA Technical Community College Business Instructor Linda Thornhill was recently honored at the Louisiana Business Educators annual conference, where she was named Postsecondary Teacher of the Year.
Thornhill was nominated for her work ethic and dedication to the SOWELA School of Business and Applied Technology. She continuously seeks new ways to enhance and align the curriculum with the modern workplace. Thornhill does an excellent job in the classroom, blending theory with real-world applications.
In addition, many of her students enjoy her classes and feel comfortable seeking her out for help outside of the classroom. She consistently teaches an overload of courses while taking PhD courses in economics and participating on several college committees.
Thornhill joined SOWELA nearly two years ago. Before that, she was a Calcasieu Parish School Board Business Teacher.
