你的教学理念是什么?
写作能力的重要性是不可低估的。毫无疑问,最具市场竞争力的求职者会通过面对面和网页进行有效的沟通。因为生活需要批判性思维、组织思维和分析技能,每个人都需要学习如何构建论点,以全面而简洁的方式总结材料,并使用语法规则,在页面(或屏幕)上清晰地表达想法。我认为没有学生参与的教学是无效的。作为一名在线助教,我喜欢布置阅读清单,与学生互动讨论,并对他们的论文提供建设性的反馈。尽管来自全国各地,我还是要求他们把阅读过程当作写作过程的一部分。他们做笔记,问问题,并与同学合作,以更好地理解材料。我帮助他们把批判性思维应用到课堂之外的生活和自己的写作中。我不仅看到了他们的成长和蓬勃发展,而且其中一名学生被该校的艺术硕士项目录取了。在那之前,我做了三年的在线英语家教。 This job helped me to evaluate the current educational system at the college level. I noticed trends - students are often not provided with a formal and detailed education in grammar, organization, and argumentative skills. While everyone has a different understanding of grammar, providing a refresher of punctuation and sentence structure is helpful to all. Furthermore, learning how to organize sentences into coherent and complete paragraphs and paragraphs into thoughtful essays is key for proving a point. A strong thesis statement is essential to any good paper, and research is a vital process in composing a convincing and well-informed piece. With all of these tools in their writing tool belts, students will have the ability to write well. My strategies for student engagement include using prompts, readings, and discussions to interact with their peers and me as their instructor. Using subjects students care about and want to explore fosters passion and connection. Just getting them to put pen to page (or fingers to keyboard) in the effort of stimulating their thought processes can help them to get over some of their frustrations. I want to encourage students to make the most of the drafting process. After all, a rough draft is a rough draft (and a crucial step). For a skill so essential to educational and professional development to be boring in students' eyes is unacceptable. I believe in working with students, rather than telling them what to do. As an instructor, my hope is to get students excited about writing by exploring their passions.
