I intend to achieve a good blend of theory and practice — because that’s what public health work actually demands. My classroom leans on discussion, team-based learning, and assignments that build critical understanding rather than test recall.
My class activities are discussion-based; my assignments are focused on developing critical understanding of the topic.
Public-health professionals work in teams, so I lean heavily on team-based learning. I want to inculcate learner-centered, objectives-based instruction — every activity and assignment aimed at achieving specific learning outcomes.
I also want to use the many technologies and resources available to aid my teaching and enhance the student learning process — from short pre-class videos to real-time data exercises and structured collaboration tools.
Preshit always includes very relevant examples which help clarify his main points.
Preshit is passionate about his topics and provides good background information about them. Without that, I probably wouldn’t care as much. He is great at engaging the class and answering questions, too.

I found the video to be an informative, engaging way to introduce the topic. Following that, the lecture was comprehensive. The detailed time schedule for the assignment was useful because it kept us on track.
