Experience
I have been a student for about 18 years so I understand the mechanics of learning and different ways of learning. I was also a Teachers Assistant in the Spring of 2008 for an introductory Anthropology class. In order to fulfill the requirements of the assistant-ship I held regular office hours where I would have several student come for help with the material. As well for all four tests I held a study session in which many students would come to ask questions. I also graded several assignments for the professor I was working under. Through this experience I was forced to put myself in the students shoes and try to explain concepts that were basic and natural to me but were foreign to the students. I was forced to think of different ways of explaining one concept when the students did not understand.
