To reflect on your feelings about being a university teacher


Aim

To reflect on your feelings about being a university teacher.


Reflection

Write for a short piece about how you began teaching in higher education. Was this an active decision or something you were asked to do? How did you feel? What did/does it mean for you? In what ways is it important to you?

Read what you have written and highlight where you have made reference to specific value commitments.  List these, and try to identify personal experiences that informed why they were so important.
