教师 & 工作人员
Mary Gere Bridger M.A.

- "For me, 教ing is a lot about the personal relationships developed with students. 教学, especially predominantly freshman level courses, centers around supporting students as they find their way in college. Oh, and the Oxford comma - definitely, the Oxford comma."
Ami M艺术inez M.Ed.

- "我相信 one learns a skill by practicing that skill, and thus I aim for my classes to be as interactive as possible. Treating each student as an individual and meeting each student at his or her current skill level are central to my 教ing philosophy. I know my students have great ideas, whether those ideas are about business, automotive restoration, 生物学, 艺术, or any discipline; my job, 我相信, is to support students in expressing those great ideas via the spoken and written word.”

My promise to my students is that I will remain throughout the semester 100 percent invested in helping them to develop a writing process."
