Preface
In this section the teacher states his/her philosophy and vision of teaching and
academic lifetime.
The principles and philosophy of my teaching and in giving lectures to my
students; is by power point presentation, showing them as much pictures and
schemes as possible to simplify the subject.
Then I divide them into two groups and make a debate between them to see and
know which one performs better, and has a better understanding of the subject.
If needed I repeat the subject: once, twice,…until the students understand it in a
very well manner and do not have any questions about it.
During power point presentation of my lecture I put question marks between the
slides of my lecture to know if any student has a question about my lecture.
