Aisha is a Yale graduate (class of 2013) who holds a B.A. in English and is currently engaged in graduate study towards an M.A. in English at Southern New Hampshire University. Professionally, she is an Independent Public Relations Consultant and Administrator, but her true passion is English Language and Literature.

Q&A with Aisha

I believe that teaching is one of the greatest responsibilities and privileges that exists among people. As a student myself, I know that there are a variety of different learning styles that can make learning certain types of material more difficult than others. My philosophy about teaching is that learning for learning’s sake is its own reward. Inspiring the sparks of interest and curiosity within my students is a great passion of mine. That being said, I also recognize the great importance of testing well and succeeding on paper academically. For those reasons, I want to teach my students to think in a way that gets them asking the right questions, open-mindedly considering possibilities, forming arguments from an informed and well-rounded perspective, and enabling them to connect their learning to both concrete, tangible examples and philosophical, theoretical perspectives.
