What’s your teaching style and how will you teach?
I like to have fun in my classes. I am thorough in execution but joyful in presentation. I do expect students to follow instruction and do the assignments, and I welcome every question a student may ask. I will use slides to help present my lessons and hands-on work to engage student learning. I love having students bring in their own learning styles and ways of participation. Since this is a small class, I do expect to interact with all students. I want to learn about my students and what they are experienced in.
