    Teaching

    The contagious energy share in the classroom brings new ideas and clarity of thought to my research. But the aspect of teaching I have come to cherish the most is the feeling of restoring hope and giving direction to struggling students.

    My biggest challenge is to inspire students to focus on studying our course material by explaining first-hand its practical benefits with clear, real-life examples and case studies. Many students feel lost, swept up in searching for their place in society and purpose in life, and this at-times overwhelming philosophical venture can easily dampen their enthusiasm for the learning experience. To keep them grounded and on-track for success, I balance lecture with discussion and group work.

    Our society can improve the lives of future generations by better preparing them for holistic success. This effort demands refining our pedagogy, and ultimately our education system. I therefore hope to continue teaching, as well as advancing personal research projects, to contribute to social progress and the betterment of our world.
