What is your teaching philosophy?
After five semesters of teaching courses with the explicit objectives of instilling the basic elements of quality college-level writing, a task that has ingrained two primary objectives within me as an instructor: 1) I want my students to improve as writers, as it applies to their individual levels of proficiency 2) I'd like for them to become more astute intellectual/critical thinkers, a skill set I hope they'll apply not only to literary texts but out in the world as well.
