...struggled with performing well on tests. I thought to myself, why was this happening? Students have so much pressure to perform well on standardized tests.

...large projects rather than a series of smaller homework assignments. I believe that in larger classes it is the teacher's responsibility to transfer their general knowledge and foundational concepts, but as the classes decrease in size, the teacher/tutor should begin to act more as a personal mentor, encouraging individual students to think for themselves as much as possible. As a TA, I would spend most of the assigned class period moving from group to group...
