In order to offer the scheduled psychology courses, we would like to recommend that a temporary full-time instructor be hired for the 2016-2017 academic year. Academic background: Mr. Walrath is a graduate of Ball State University with a master of arts degree in social psychology and a graduate of Northern Illinois University with a bachelor of science degree in psychology. Professional background: Mr. Walrath has been an adjunct psychology instructor at Sauk Valley Community since August 2014, and also teaches at Kishwaukee Community College as an adjunct psychology instructor. Recommendation: The administration recommends that the Board of Trustees approve the temporary employment of Mr. Taylor Walrath for the 2016-2017 academic year as a psychology instructor starting August 12, 2016 at a salary of $35,170. August 8, 2016 Dr. Jon Mandrell Sauk Valley Community College 173 IL Route 2 Dixon IL 61021 Dear Dr. Mandrell: I am writing to apply for the full-time temporary psychology faculty position starting in the fall of 2016. With my experience in teaching psychology at the college level, proficiency in psychological research, and a sincere passion for psychology, I believe I am a strong candidate for the position at Sauk Valley Community College. While attending graduate studies at Ball State University, I built the skills necessary to teach at the college level. Since then I have taught multiple sections of Introduction to Psychology, Lifespan Development, and Child Development at Sauk Valley Community College averaging 25 students. I have also taught Introduction to Psychology and Human Growth and Development entirely online except for the final exam. I have taught multiple Introduction to Psychology Classes, Child Development, and Lifespan classes at Kishwaukee College averaging 22 students of a diverse background. I have also taught three First-Year Experience courses at Sauk Valley Community College. I have received excellent evaluations from the Dean, Vice President, and the students at ̽ѡ (documentation available). I have also received excellent evaluations from the students at Kishwaukee College which I can provide upon request. With these qualifications in mind, I believe I would be a great addition to the full-time faculty at Sauk Valley Community College. My philosophy for teaching is to keep students interested by making class unique, engaging, and challenging. Students struggle to learn if they are not engaged in the classroom. That is why I enjoy using diverse teaching methods with some of my favorites being in-class activities, in-class discussions drawing from my personal experience in the research and counseling areas of psychology, and relevant videos that relate to the material but are entertaining enough to grab the attention of media driven students. I have a strong passion for all of psychology. The opportunity to get students passionate about psychology and learning in general is a dream come true for me. I have a hard working mentality, a passion for teaching psychology, and a genuine ability to relate to students and faculty of diverse backgrounds. I am confident that I would be a valuable addition to the faculty at ̽ѡ. Please contact me if you have any questions or need further documentation. I thank you for your consideration and look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Taylor Walrath '-/:;?@BDLMW^dw    $ / 0 1 þ{vqlhd`h`h>h\!h)O h25 hk5 hr5hOTht5CJaJhOThqp5CJaJhQhqp5hebhqp5hx`h2hqp5 h)O5 hq[5 hX5 h5 hT25 hCT5 hUU5hqp h5>* ht5>* hCT5>* h445 h u5 h |5 hqp5%./ABCD   / 0 ! # `gd8`gdx8`gd5gdkgd2gdtgdgdXgdqp ^ gd$a$gdqp    !
