I feel very empowered to mentor students. It gives me a since of accomplishment and overall joy when the "light bulb" comes on in the student. They tend to appreciate things a bit more.

verticle probe

Students need someone to listen to them and help them settle issues that they feel are out of control. In those instances, I look for opportunities to speak to them and give them guidance with confronting issues and posing behaviors that will yield positive outcomes. They find what we have discussed helpful.

academic stagnation

Many times students feel as though no matter how hard they apply themselves they can never be as effecitve as others.Some pose limited learning capabilities(comprehension issues). Trying to make them feel competent amidst their fellow students has been a challenging task.

Departments sending the same message

While teaching is great, its been a continuous problem with all departments sending the same message across the institutions entire spectrum. Notable, many of the students are annoyed with these signals but in some instances, its hard to clarify. Ultimately, I feel like the enemy.
