Teaching Philosophy: For me, teaching is an important component of an academic career. As a physicist, I am motivated not only by the “pleasure of finding things out,” but also explaining them to others. I receive great intellectual pleasure from explaining physical concepts and seeing students understand them. I feel that it is essential to keep students involved in the subject and convey to them not just the information but the concepts and thought processes that makeup physics. Many people outside of physics feel that physics education is about memorizing formulas, but this is certainly not the case. Especially in the information age, any competent student can either look up or re-derive the formulas of our science, so education is not really about that. What is important, is having students learn and internalize the methods and concepts of physics. Many students go through physics classes and learn quite well how to manipulate formulas without ever grasping the concepts behind those formulas. Being able to understand the basic concepts like forces and fields, how they are related to the real world, and how they square with the students' perception of the world are the essentials of the undergraduate education. My teaching philosophy is that it is essential to keep students interested and involved, as the point of education is for students to understand the material. One of the key tools is getting more feedback from the students and adjusting accordingly. In my limited experience, I have found that it beneficial to actively encourage students to keep asking questions during the lectures as well as asking them questions myself. One useful strategy that I would like to try, especially in introductory classes. I feel reasonably comfortable in teaching any of the standard introductory courses. In addition, it would be a great pleasure to teach specialized courses on topics that are close to my research interests for advanced undergraduate students. In summary, I am enthusiastic about teaching as well as research. I am looking forward to helping to educate the next generation of physicists and teaching non-physicists to think physically. Finally, I would like to add that teaching people about physics should continue outside of the university, and therefore I am quite interested in participating in outreach to the general public.
