About me
Personality tends to dictate pedagogy and I try to possess the correct mixture of idealism, optimism and realism, while at the same time containing and controlling my skepticism and cynicism. Teaching undergraduates has been gratifying not only in my success in introducing students to a world of critical inquiry, but also in the way in which addressing my students’ difficulties with analytical writing and thinking has revitalized and refined my own pedagogy. I am now more cognizant of my own teaching skills and the pedagogical tenets behind them.
