I really liked how this module discussed reflecting on our past as we establish our own personal teaching style. Something I never realized is how much my past instructors have influenced the way I teach. My favorite instructors were those who not only had a passion for their subject, but also showed respect for the students who wished to learn about the subject matter, too. They were passionate in the classroom and enthusiastic about passing on their knowledge to their students. I realize now that I try to emulate the teaching styles that were most effective for me as a student. What past experiences influence your role as an instructor?
