About Andrew

I have been lucky to have a diversity of opportunities as a teaching. Of the three classes I currently work with, one is a large introductory undergraduate psychology course, another is a research methods class consisting of small, closely-knit groups who are each developing novel research projects. Lastly, I act as a teaching assistant and research consultant for medical residents at Jamaica Hospital, where I also conduct research.

Along with teaching, I also conduct research on the pedagogy of introductory psychology courses. Currently, we are beginning to analyze data from a pilot study I helped to design based around tailored student feedback. As a teacher and researcher, it often feels as if I'm learning how to teach from multiple angles all at once, yet this is a positive, as I have become comfortable within fairly distinct settings.

About the lesson

Teaching and researching in this way has given me a fresh perspective on current trends in the literature and has served as an excellent buttress for my hands-on duties. My philosophy towards tutoring and mentoring in general is to lead by supporting. Having tutored in college and having been a direct care clincian for at-risk youth, I possessed a foundational of motivational and interpersonal skills and experiences. Since beginnig graduate school, I have thrown myself into the work of helping determined young minds succeed. I have been lucky enough to see my first class graduate, some of whom are going to be attending graduate school in the fall.
Leading by supporting has meant many things, sometimes it is the application of Socratic questioning to a student who is on the verge of comprehending a topic. Other times it is about taking a few minutes away from the work at hand and checking in, letting students vent, hopefully enjoy themselves. As a future clinician, I place a high premium on rapport-building and make every effort to create a safe yet productive enviornment for learning. This is perhaps the most important, and most consistently reinforced, lessons which my experiences have taught me.
