From Corporate Career to Classroom Excellence
Russell Miles didn’t become an award-winning teacher overnight. In fact, he’ll be the first to admit that it was a process.
“Initially I wasn’t a patient or understanding instructor. I would go into class thinking my course was the only thing students had going on in their lives,†Miles says. “Over time I became more empathetic. I kept my standards high, but I tried to become more understanding of the challenges students may be faced with beyond the classroom.â€
