Brief Statement on Teaching
I have a great passion for teaching and encouraging student learning. I firmly believe that educators must be as dynamic as possible and utilize a host of pedagogical tools to encourage, foster, and cultivate a breeding ground of academic success for their students. My teaching style emphasizes faculty-student interaction. While lectures in my classes are common, I also stress giving a great deal of responsibility to students in the classroom. In my classes you will find students presenting the materials and engaging the other students in class discussions. I also feature semester-long research projects and simulations, where students can get hands-on experience with the course material.
Feel free to check out how I put together some of my classes. I’ve included syllabi under the Courses label…
