Hi Thomas, Sorry for the delay in getting back to you but I have been on extended travel the past two weeks and now back in my office and ready to communicate with students once again. Your response about instructional style is an excellent one. You are doing all of the right things to insure that you are meeting student needs. The points you make about individual student help, seeing yourself as a student, and learning from other instructors are all ways in which you can formulate a concrete instructional style for yourself. With your self improvement plan to keep yourself current through attending seminars, reading trade publications, etc. is going to assist you in being the best instructor that you can be. Be sure to keep some kind of diary or notebook about the things you are doing to insure that you can reflect on those methods that really worked for you and those that you might choose to not do again. I keep this record to insure that I can chart growth for myself and expand my horizons as an educator. Gary
