My work experience spans over 15 years in a variety of higher education settings, including Academic Advising, Student Services, Residence Life, and Accreditation.  I've coached thousands of struggling students of all ages pursue their goals and succeed, and I can do the same for you.  Let me help you design a plan to earn your college degree or start a new career that maximizes your time and finances while minimizing your frustration. ​

I have taught Student Life Skills (SLS) courses at Valencia College and Miami Dade College since 2005.  These courses are designed to help students discover their strengths, values, and interests so they can select a college major and eventually a career.  ​

While some students don't care to take these courses at first, they often change their minds!  Here are some of the nice things students have said after taking my class:
​
At first I thought this would be a stupid class that I would hate waking up so early to come to. Honestly, this became my favorite class this semester.  I am extremely thankful to have had an awesome professor who truly understands from experience how hard things can get.  Being in this class was one of the most productive things I have done thus far in my college career, and it was worth every penny and every minute of my time .

My manager at work always says, “The professor makes the class.”  I am agreeing with him on this one because I see that you make the class worth while and show something that other professors don’t. You actually care about us. So, thank you for all the life lessons learned.  This course did change my life for the better.  I use it in my day-to-day life.  Even found a new job because of it!

KEITH

Honestly before entering this class I had no interest in paying attention, I was so upset and frustrated of being obligated to take this course in the summer semester but now I personally think it was an amazing class. I have learned so many new ways of managing my school and emotions it is incredible, I even told my friends to take this class just to try and learn new things because it was so helpful to me . . . thank you for everything!!! Dr. Guerriero I am sure you will help many other struggling students realize their mistakes and help them overcome those challenges.

Even though it's a punishment to some, I'm glad I enrolled in this class and particularly with the amazing professor that I have . . . Really, all the quizzes and reflections have helped me and taught me so much about myself and others. I really have gone home after every class and have tried my best to apply it to my life. I've talked to so many people about this class. I am now trying to help others improve as well.  Lastly, I want to thank you Professor Guerriero for being such a great professor and going above and beyond to teach this class. I wish I could have you as my professor for every single course. You're such an amazing person! 

LAZARA

This class is so important to me that I don’t even know how to begin or what was the most valuable thing that I learned this semester . . . The way you teach is amazing; you entertain while teaching, you establish rapport with students and above all you inspire . . . What I learned in this class is going to be valuable for the rest of my life.
