Little did I know the what such a philosophy requires for a dedicated professional in education. In my years since graduating and starting my profession, meeting the studen... Read more

By this I mean that I don't teach a definition and require the student to repeat it back to me without understanding what the concept really is. I like to relate concepts to real life, rather than leaving ... Read more
