My teaching philosophy has developed through my experience as a teaching assistant and assistant professor and associate professor at different Universities. In my experience, the most successful classes are those in which there is a high level of student participation. I will try to encourage classroom participation by carefully organizing each lecture. With clear organization, students are more likely to believe they understand the framework of the class and will therefore be willing to ask questions about sections they do not understand. A second technique that I think will be useful is asking questions of individual students in order to create a more participatory classroom environment.
