...talking with them about the work. I also am very good at helping students brainstorm essay topics or issues, and reviews on the subject. I prefer active learning over passive learning, lecturing is boring and tends to be a waste of time unless there's some interaction. Outside Academia, I love to write and hike. I'm also an avid subpar cooker, so if you want to know how to burn eggs I'm your guy.
