...thinking critically can we truly understand something. My goal as an instructor is help my students gain these skills. I don't want to just bark, "This is correct. End of discussion." I want my students to know why they need to do things in certain ways. However, no one person learns the same way as anyone else. We can make general methods to teach many students a bit, but to really learn something, the learning...

...problem solve on test day rather than simply regurgitate information. When a student learns how to develop context around his or her knowledge, that student is better prepared for class, for research, for writing, and for exams. While many students panic at the prospect of taking standardized tests like the ACT or GRE, I have learned that my methods lead to more confident students, less stressful test days, and - most importantly - higher scores....

I also enjoy teaching writing as writing skills carry with us our whole lives, whether it be in...
