For the second year in a row, SDU University has held the professional contest “Best SDU Advisor” to recognize instructors who have shown exceptional dedication in supporting students.

Based on this year’s results, the prize winners are as follows:

• 🥇 1st place — Mayra Zholshaeva

• 🥈 2nd place — Sholpan Sabidolda

• 🥉 3rd place — Nailya Uteubayeva

In addition, participants were also recognized in five special nominations.

The “Best SDU Advisor” contest is not only a way to celebrate professional accomplishments, but also an important platform for experience sharing, professional development, and enhancing student support systems.

An advisor is not just someone who answers academic questions — they are mentors, motivators, and trusted guides who help students achieve their goals.

We sincerely congratulate all the winners and participants! You have set a shining example of professionalism and genuine care. May your efforts be recognized and your inspiration never run dry!
