"I believe that with patience and hard work any student can be great at any subject. My friends and colleagues describe me as incessantly positive and always looking for solutions.

I prefer when students have a problem set that they can accomplish off-screen, highlighting questions where 1 they didn't know where to start, and 2 they are not confident in their answers. I appreciate when I can get a copy of the problem set a day in advance to prepare for the subject material."
