Where We're Going We Don't Need Roads (Doc Brown)
I have been a college instructor for five years. I've mainly taught introductory college composition courses; however, I have a strong background in literature. I like to think of my teaching philosophy as a mixture between the Socratic Method and avant-garde theater. I say this because I like to continually question the students until they arrive at the answer I am looking for, rather than directly tell them the answer I’m looking for. At the same time, I like to make analogies through cu... Read more
