Amanda Villagómez, Ed.D. is a professor in the College of Education at Eastern Oregon University where she also coordinates the MS in Education program. As a wife and mom of 6 girls, Amanda knows what it is like to desire to serve well, while also being confronted with human limitations. 

Through her career she has invested in excellence in curriculum development and responsiveness to students. As her family grew, she began to regularly experience the toll of being stretched too thin. The need for proper prioritization, while still maintaining quality, was clear.

Over the years, she has refined her understanding of human formation and the process of teaching and learning in order to prioritize what matters most. Through Teach Like a Learner, Amanda is excited to share what she learns while navigating the tensions of career and family.
