I have used these principles in my teaching in the Linguistics department, where I study linguistic diversity and what it can tell us about human cognition. I’ve also applied them to my work as an Academic Skills Coach at Stanford’s Center for Teaching and Learning.
I am eager to join this program and learn from more teachers, as I know that teaching styles must adapt to be most effective for different types of student populations. I want to learn how I can develop and translate my skills to create safe spaces for growth and learning for as many students as possible.
