A Teaching Statement or Teaching Philosophy is often a required part of an academic job application. Regardless of whether teaching will be your primary focus or it’s merely a requirement of the position, a well-written statement can set you apart from other applicants. This workshop will step through the process of identifying and developing a teaching philosophy and begin shaping it into a concise, impactful teaching statement. Participants should come prepared to reflect on their previous experiences as students and teachers, and ready to write.
