IN THE CLASSROOM
Courses @ TxState

I grew up (i.e. suffered ;p) in a teacher's family, for my parent, and my grandfather are all teachers in their whole lives. I never envision myself being a teacher one day, in fact, the least I thought about my career was being a teacher. However, my interest in doing research drives me into pursuing a career in academia and thank God that it opens up my horizon in teaching at a university setting. My pedagogical philosophy is to empower my students with problem solving skills and spatial analytical techniques. After several years in academia, I found that teaching is rewarding (and sometimes fun too if I got over the class prep). I enjoyed the students who brought interaction to the class, and I think I learn more in the process of teaching.
