Teaching Philosophy
I think that teaching is a dynamic, fluid medium and it is important to
find ever more effective ways to reach and motivate students. In an
effort to achieve this I feel it is my duty as an instructor to
continually reflect on my teaching, to incorporate new material, and make
learning biology interesting to my students. Ultimately, I believe that
teaching is a cooperative effort between teacher and student. I am a guide
through the material, there to present information and aid in
understanding; the students should be active participants, assimilating
the information in class and lab as well as studying the material outside
of the classroom.
