- Why I teach in Honors:
1. It varies my teaching/courses;
2. I enjoy the small class discussions which differ from my lecture classes;
3. Gives me an opportunity to read new books and learn new topics.
- My philosophy for teaching in Honors:
1. Challenge students through stimulating discussions;
2. Make sure students understand the text and the historical background that provides a better understanding of the text and the reasons for its writing;
3. Demand that students particpate in class discussions and submit written assignments.
