[quote=Anonymous]Ex-prof here who has taught both at large state university and at small liberal arts college. 09:51 has nailed it! Her advice is sound. The only thing I can add is that a lot of grad students (and therefore assistant professors who were once grad students) don't get much if any training in how to teach. It took me a few years as an assistant prof to really develop a good classroom style and it has to be something you really care about -- otherwise it's tempting to phone it in while looking for a research grant or a publication. That's why kids are more likely to get good teaching at liberal arts colleges that hire people who want to teach. [/quote]
