I am always trying to acquire more experience, insight and skills to apply to teaching. This is a constant challenge in an institutional setting which rewards research much more than teaching, but I have found opportunities both inside and outside the classroom to develop my pedagogical skills . The Sheridan Center at Brown University provided me with hands-on learning and a great deal of wisdom in this regard. You can read more about my teaching philosophy and teaching experience on the following pages:
