Hi there!
My teaching style is very lively, relational, and uses many different strategies to individualize each lesson to your learning needs. My teaching training and PhD research are both oriented towards using multiple methods––writing, drawing, talking, moving, and so on--to help students connect with and analyze literature, in addition to developing the rigorous technical skills they will need to succeed in such endeavours. This approach works especially well for two kinds of students: those who wish to further hone their already-developed skills, and those for whom reading, writing, and research are difficult or undesirable.
