My teaching philosophy

The best way to learn about effective communication is to practice it. I help students discover how to become lifelong learners, emphasizing that learning is not limited to a particular teacher, class, or time in their lives. Additionally, I maximize opportunities for students to see the holistic nature of communication by fusing lesson ideas and supporting the transfer of knowledge to the workplace. I bring attention to the gift of learning and the priority it should hold in their lives.

Communication Internship

A professional field experience allows students to test drive their skills in preparation for graduation. These rich opportunities have been positive 'game changers' for many students. See Professor Waite for more information.
