Experience Summary
During my two years attending graduate school at Ohio University, I was responsible for teaching an introductory college course. Aside from the mandated textbook, I developed and distributed all course materials, including in-class lectures, classroom exercises, course examinations, and other various learning materials. I assisted the students in properly parsing and formulating an appropriate answer to each assignment, as well as clarifying their own conceptual understanding of the course material. This heavy emphasized one-on-one instruction with individual students who found the material exceptionally challenging, and was done multiple times per week.
Teaching Style
I love to learn and love to share that joy with others. I try to be clear and precise as possible in my explanation of course content, but I try to avoid blatantly giving a student an answer to a question. I feel the best way to learn is to let the student work at the problem on his own and come to the solution by himself. This leads the student to a feeling of success and accomplishment and helps him to better develop his own individual skills.
