I can sum up my teaching (and writing) philosophy in two lines: I get students to love learning again, to see how learning can be incredibly stimulating and enriching; moreover, I teach students how to see and think more deeply, to think critically, analytically, interrogatively. In this way, students can begin to actualize self instead of being determined by exterior (ideological) forces that want to shape them.—Reagan Ross
