Welcome to HappyProfessor.com! My name is Erin, and I truly hope you enjoy this blog, and find what you’re looking for in the posts.
If you have any questions about teaching online college courses and/or working from home, feel free to send a message to the Happy Professor Facebook Page– I’d love to hear from you!
To give you some background..
At 23, I taught my first college Public Speaking course while in grad school, and never looked back. Today, I’m still finding new ways to connect with students in the online classroom while managing my time as a remote worker, wife, and mom to two adorable little girls.
Since 2010, I’ve been a part-time college instructor (although I teach online for 4 schools, so it’s become a full-time job- albeit very flexible!), and I love my job. These days I teach a number of online communication classes for schools throughout the country, ranging from Public Speaking to Family Communication.
One of my biggest passions is helping students succeed, and helping other instructors (and aspiring college instructors) be successful at their job, whether in the face-to-face or online college classroom.
I’m the author of Happy Professor, The 3-Step Speech, Happy Professor’s Guide to a Happy Classroom, and my newest book Happy Professor’s Guide to Working at Home, and I’m sure that list will continue to grow!
This blog focuses on student success, teaching tips, teaching online, how to live simply, find balance, and how to effectively work from home.
Thank you for stopping by, and I look forward to chatting!
