Biography

University of Central Missouri - Library Science

Adjunct Instructor at University of Central Missouri
Writing & Editing
Barbara
Smith
Kansas City, Missouri Area
I enjoy helping others broaden their horizons. It doesn't matter what I'm teaching, it is uplifting to encourage my students to reach their full potential in that area. I am a writer as well, with many news stories published under my byline, and a book that is almost finished. So, as I am teaching students about the English language, I am also still learning it as well. This broadens MY horizons, and keeps me viable as a person, and as a potential employee.

Experience

    I taught English Composition for one year, two sections per semester, as a graduate assistant. Each section had twenty-three students.
    After graduation, I was hired to teach University Library Research Skills, three sections per semester. I have taught these sections for a year, and will be teaching four sections of the same class for Fall/Spring 2015-2016. Each section has forty students. I am responsible for teaching research techniques, understanding databases, library awareness, and computer search programs.
