The final week of office hours was somewhat of a quiet one. One student stopped by with a question about snells law and how to apply it to an online homework problem. After pointing out how the given the angle from snells law could be used to find the distant that a ray of light was refracted the student was able to figure out the problem.
UTA'ing for physics 2 this semester has been an amazing experience. It gave me the opportunity to make an impact at this university and allowed for a sneak peek into the world of teaching. It also taught me some invaluable skills that aren't often found in the classroom such as patience and finding unique ways to explain concepts. Whether it was through help with that one final homework problem they couldn't figure out, or some words of encouragement before an exam, I hope the students that I interacted with found themselves a little more comfortable in physics 2 this semester. I wish them all the best on the final exam!
