As a volunteer co-tutor (paired with a physician for each section) in the Ethical, Legal, and Social Issues in Medicine (ELSIM) component of the Practice of Medicine (POM) course required for all first- and second-year medical students at Upstate Medical University, I consistently receive above-average evaluations from students. In 2001-2002 with first-year students, my co-tutor and I together received an average of 4.0 on a 5-point Leikert scale, while I separately received an average score of 3.3 on a 4-point Leikert scale. In Fall 2004 with first-year students, we together received a 4.2 average on a 5-point Leikert scale. On a 5-point Leikert scale, I separately received the following average scores:
- 4.0 from first-year students in Fall 2002.
- 4.4 from second-year students in Spring 2003.
- 4.6 from first-year students in Fall 2003.
- 4.2 from second-year students in Spring 2004.
- 4.4 from second-year students in Spring 2005.
- 4.15 from second-year students in Fall 2005.
Teaching one non-credit course per semester at the Humanistic Studies Center of Syracuse University for nine and a half years, I received consistently high evaluations from students. Three times I received an ovation at the last class.
Teaching credit courses at Villanova University for two years, I was among the toughest graders and most demanding taskmasters in the Philosophy Department, but also among the teachers rated highest by the students. The average grade I gave over four semesters was 2.42 on a four-point scale, but the students who responded to the evaluation question, "Regardless of the course and classroom conditions, is this professor a good teacher?" produced the following result: Excellent, 41%; Good, 28%; Average, 21%; Fair, 6%; Poor, 4%.
