" There should be no single approach to teaching, as each student you encounter is different, and each experience adds something new to the mix. When I teach, I always try to make a connection to each of my students through their past experiences, culture, and background.

" I have published everything from short stories to journalistic articles, in my college paper or at The New York Times. Most students come to me for my encouraging spirit and fun attitude because I always want to make learning a positive experience.

Not everyone finds their words easily, and some even feel ashamed to take time to express themselves."
