Philosophy and Religion Teachers, Postsecondary

Some days I work from home, and some days I go to the university. When I work from home I start early and spend most of the morning reading and writing. In the afternoons I run errands, including exercise. By 2:00 after eating my last meal of the day, I tend to various office chores. When on campus I teach my courses, attend meetings, and usually visit the library on my way out.

Due to the pandemic, a typical day at work looks a lot different than it normally does. Instead of teaching in a classroom, my classes are asynchronous. I assign work to my students to do at their own pace and don't meet with them virtually. Although starting next semester I am going to have a virtual class. A typical day involves me grading papers, creating assignments, lesson planning, and having one on ones with students who have questions or need help.
