Been teaching for 39 years. My favorite part is when the students master a skill and don’t realize they did all the work, I just guided them

Even as a student, I always enjoyed helping my peers understand difficult topics. It was truly self fulfilling to see people understand things which came naturally to myself. I feel like I was born to teach.
Tell us about your most memorable teaching experienceThere are too many to single out any one. I enjoy seeing former students years after graduation and talking about their success. When they relate how I helped them develop a method of understanding that they took on to their careers and utilize in their lives.
What would you do with the $25,000?Most likely get more up to date materials for my anatomy and physiology class as well as my chemistry class.
