TEACHING OVERVIEW

The most effective courses are taught by instructors whose enthusiasm for the material is contagious. Whether the subject is mathematics, political science, or music, an instructor who communicates a genuine interest in and curiosity about the material is likely to foster a classroom community where students are receptive to learning. I aspire to be just such a teacher.
