Last Friday marked the end of the Advisor Institute taking place at Georgetown University. The Advisor Institute allows advisors to simulate their students experience and learn information that can greatly improve their club.
Although we could tell you all about the Advisor Institute, it is better coming from someone who actually attended it.
Tell me a little about yourself-
Chad Wright is a History and Social Sciences Teacher at Kettle Run High School in Fauquier County, Virginia. In addition, he serves as the Model United Nations Advisor at Kettle Run. Mr. Wright established the Kettle Run High School Model UN team in 2009 as a way to expand on the Geopolitics course he was teaching at the time. It was a way for students to expand class discussions and debate on International Relations beyond the structure of the course into a club format. In 2013, the club had some ambitious students who wanted to take the club to the next level by creating a team to compete on the Northern Virginia Model UN Circuit. Since 2013, Kettle Run has attended over 25 conferences in the Washington D.C., Maryland, and Virginia region. Mr. Wright recently attended the Best Delegate MUN Advisor Institute at Georgetown University in hopes to learn the processes of Model UN to become a better advisor/coach to help his students build their academic skills and continue growing the Model UN program.
