About Hugo Guillermo

I believe that love and passion can ignite the spark of excitement in students. I mean love in a moral, philosophical, or theological sense; love for the human being, for the biosphere, for the universe, and for life itself. A love that is hope at the same time. And the teacher must be the first enthusiastic believer that this is the basis of teaching and the teaching-learning process. For example, I am as passionate about the content I teach as I am about the way I teach it. And I can change content and teaching strategies from one day to the next and sometimes hours before sharing them, depending on the reality in which I perceive the attitude and interest of my students.

The emotion that the teacher communicates, the enthusiasm and energy that he shows for the content and the students' learning, awakens the students to ideas old and new and ignites their desire for learning in unexpected ways. The mind's ability to learn is a process linked with emotion, love, and curiosity only to the extent in which the teacher arouses that emotion, love, and curiosity on what is taught.

I also encourage research and intellectual curiosity. A professor can make a difference by transforming a student's college learning experience. I focus on being the teacher who will make a difference for my students, the ones who will never forget my teachings. I strive to inspire them to keep going by encouraging them to learn for themselves, taking what they learn in class beyond the classroom, and sharing it with their peers, their families, and their communities; I want them to want to learn more, and themselves wanting to teach what they have learned to others.

For example, when I taught the molecular structure of volatile organic acids in my Organic Chemistry course within the Environmental Engineering degree at the National University of Chimborazo in Ecuador, I taught them that the smell of French cheeses like Roquefort were volatile organic compounds, but in different proportions than the ones that create foot odour (some are unique to each individual). Then we had a reunion where we brought and smelled different cheeses. The experience was interesting and solidified the content studied in class; it also fostered curiosity and a sense of purpose.

As a teacher, another important goal is to create an attractive, loving, and supportive learning environment in which my students acquire knowledge through critical and free-thinking, and develop their communication and interpersonal skills, while at the same time awakening in them a passion for their own for what they are learning.

I also want to emphasize that in the teaching and learning process, the teacher is only a facilitator. The teacher needs to convey the importance of research and discovery and allow students to learn by doing.
