Bernard Davis
Adjunct Faculty
My style is one of coach, mentor and instructor. I believe in ‘no surprises’ and do not require students to know anything that I have not specifically pointed out as being a key learning outcome. I believe in weekly assessments and repetitive focus and practice of the concepts and principles that I teach.
