Teaching Philosophy and InterestsIt is my belief that teaching and advising compliment one another in
the academic environment due to significant discrepancies between student
expectations and their actual academic experiences. Each student has
different goals, levels of maturity, emotional stability and scholastic
abilities. I am available for my advisees both on and off campus. My
advising for specific career goals (pre-veterinary, equine, animal science,
etc.) is realistic in that my ultimate goal is to make my students marketable
in the vocational-professional arena with emphasis upon economic and
psychological satisfaction. This is accomplished through innovative
and well-structured lectures and some commitment from the student. Any
individual can attain a "working" knowledge of a subject.
I believe the learning process should be enjoyable and motivational
rather than an elimination contest. By teaching five courses in addition
to advising, I hope that my influence may become a positive factor in
student vocational pursuits and their way of life. |
