Innovative College Teaching Key Takeaway from Yelena Abalmazova Chan, Esq.

Yelena Abalmazova Chan: “Encourage students to explore all careers, classes,and topics that interest them. I really believe it’s a duty we have asinstructors. I see some students tied to a major just because that’s what theychose based on pretty much no research or experience, and they clearly have nopassion for it. There is nothing wrong with majoring in accounting but considerinterning at a bakery if that’s something that piques their interest. Sometimeshearing that from an authority figure like a college professor is encouragingand gives students the permission to explore outside the box.”
