In the spring and fall semesters, I usually teach 6 different classes (2 Business courses and 4 AOT courses) and in the summer I teach 4 different classes; not unusual to teach 12 or more different classes within an academic year. I teach some of these classes via Distance Learning and hope to pursue online courses in the future. I enjoy the variety of classes, although preparation can be demanding from time to time, no two days are alike. I believe that seeing students succeed and making a difference in someone’s life makes it all worthwhile. |
