One of the reasons I love teaching adult students is getting to see their confidence grow alongside their knowledge. For a lot of students returning to the classroom there is this lingering doubt about whether they “belong.” Being able to teach students not just the content, but also foster a sense of belonging and self-belief is something so rewarding. Seeing students recognize. in themselves, the importance of their experiences and the connection of those experiences to college learning, is a big part of why I do what I do.
