I taught 6 classes a day, 4 introductory level classes, and 2 classes of mixed level 2-4s. All classes averaging about 30-42 students. My experiences in teaching are invaluable to me, sharing my love of media to a new generation, evaluating student projects, even assistant coaching the golf team helped to make me into the person I am today.
