Topic > My Senior Year of High School Experience - 792

During your senior year of high school, all you feel is enjoy it while you can. Many people try to scare you by reassuring you that you will be completely alone during college. They say that professors don't care if you pass the class, it's all up to you and that they wouldn't even bother memorizing your name. Yes, it is true that you have to be more responsible and that you have to work harder; however, I have met some amazing teachers during my college years. Throughout high school, I took some AP courses which are equivalent to college courses. I took AP Anatomy and Physiology throughout high school, and because of my major, I decided to take the same course again last semester; Two professors in two different environments with the same material. I would like to focus on the attitude that each professor had towards the student and the way the material was designed. Camilla Crouch was my AP Anatomy and Physiology teacher at Skyline High School. He had a great relationship with the students because he knew all of us since the first year. Our high school had clubs, and the students who took A&P were usually from the advanced science group. Mrs Crouch was the director of our cluster; Mrs. Crouch played an important role in our high school life. Even though Mrs Crouch was close to us, she didn't play in class. We had a daily quiz and homework almost every day. At the time, A&P was a tough course; the workload was insane and the amount of functions and body parts we had to memorize was ridiculous. His test was simple, you either know it or you don't. He didn't allow recovery testing, but his test had a curve. When it came to grades, Mrs Crouch was very understanding. Sh...... middle of paper ...... ral surgeon for many years; everything that has to do with the human body, he knows. Ms Crouch has her entire presentation on power points. Print out the power points for the students and the students simply add whatever they think is important. She likes to show animation; animations are very helpful in understanding a broad concept. Mrs Crouch is also knowledgeable and enjoys taking advantage of technology. Even though Mr. Bates and Ms. Crouch have different techniques and are in different environments, they are both dedicated instructors willing to help all of their students. Even though their way of teaching is different; both have the same goal, to create successful students. Both provide the necessary resources and ease the path to success. Different teaching techniques have the same results, happy and successful students.
