Most of my current work involves teaching Biology and Chemistry. With the continued importance of the Biology Keystone Exam and the difficulty in Chemistry with relating math to the science, it can be challenging for students to fully understand all aspects of the content material. Given this, my philosophy of teaching is to first be able to relate the material to the students and make it so they become interested in the short-term and long-term goal they are trying to obtain. I have seen in the past and present that when the students are interested in the material they understand it to a fuller extent and are then able to convert the information to long-term memory in a faster manner. In order to get the students interested or engaged, there are two different methods that I have found work best. The first would be to use materials to create a demonstration that the students can visually see. The other would be to show a video or talk about a real-life situation of how the material would relate to the student(s). Overall, my goal for teaching is to make the material, that can be very complicated for some students, the easiest to understand and apply so that they can recall the information and examples on formative and summative assessments.
