I just got back my teaching evaluation report today.
(As a graduate student, I’m expected to teach mathematics to 4 classes of engineering students.)
Some excerpts which I find interesting:
” Perseverance in the face of blank faces commendable!”+
” Don’t go around checking our tutorials, you make us feel like primary school kids…”-
“…Paradoxically thats a weakness too, even if I prepared for tutorial I feel stressed going for his tutorials.”+
+ means that the comment was filed under “strengths” and – under “improvements”
Some comments might as well have come from opposite poles e.g.
One student says,” covers tutorial from head to tail” +
while another says,”He could present more of his solutions instead of asking for student’s presentation..”-
Hmm……life is sure interesting as a grad student.
Born and bred in KL, Malaysia. Now studying for his Phd in Singapore. Learning to walk one fall at a time.
