In my teaching, my goals are to make my students genuinely excited about the course material and to motivate them to attend lectures since the social interaction and collaborative environment they experience cannot be found in the textbook or online videos. In order to achieve this goal, I incorporate a variety of fun different activities/quizzes/games into my lectures. In the Teaching Experience section below, there are links to different activities/quizzes/games that I have created. In addition to using these activities, I attempt to form strong relationships with all of my students to show them that I care about their success in my courses.
