Early-Stage Teaching: Working through Common Fears

Facilitator: Drs. Hardeep Dhillon, History; Emily Ng, Anthropology
Convener: Mengliu Cheng, CETLI Graduate Fellow, History

Being an instructor can feel rewarding and overwhelming. This workshop aims to create a supportive space for graduate instructors to address challenges faced in early-stage teaching. We will discuss struggles with student engagement, issues of confidence and ease, and difficult situations related to identity and power that take place in and outside the classroom.

All graduate students are welcome. This event grows out of concerns in the History department, and so may be most useful to students in related fields.

Counts toward the CETLI Teaching Certificate.

Part of the CETLI Teaching Certificate Series
