Why did you go into teaching?

To help students decide what to do with their professional lives. We spend so much time dedicated to our careers so it’s important to educate students on their strengths and interests to ensure they get in a successful position after college and beyond.

 

What do you like about teaching?

Building relationships and trust with the students. I've had the great privilege of teaching over 2,000 students since I came to 体育菠菜大平台. I can literally be anywhere and bump into a former student. Having former students say “hi” after I've had them in class means a great deal to me.
