Teaching is both a science and an art. The science comes in understanding how the human brain functions and the myriad different ways that students learn. The art comes in building rapport with students, getting to know them, and motivating them to see the connection between the subject matter and their own lives. Perhaps that's why I love teaching, because it takes the wonder of science and marries it with the unpredictability of the human spirit. My goal as a teacher is not so much to teach, but rather to change each student for the better. I want each student to leave my class a better human being than the day they entered it. |
