Thomas Angeloff

Engineering & Technology Department

B.S., Kent State University; M.A., M.S. , University of Akron

Mr. Angeloff has taught at CCSF for the past twenty years.

His educational philosophy is to be as prepared and motivated for his class as possible. This helps him impart the information that is necessary for the student to successfully complete the course. However, this is only fifty percent of the learning process. The other fifty percent is the student's motivational level to do the best that he or she can in the academic environment.

Wendy S Kaufmyn

Engineering & Technology Department

B.S.M.E, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor; M.S.M.E, University of California, Berkeley

Ms. Kaufmyn has been teaching at CCSF since 1983.

She believes that engineering is fun, however, it is also hard work. It is the most difficult undergraduate major and that is why it is so satisfying.

She tries to explain the material as clearly as possible during the class lectures and encourages students to ask questions. Ms. Kaufmyn puts a lot of effort into preparing for her lectures and, in turn, expects students to work hard by reading the material several times, contemplating and pondering it, showing up for each scheduled class and doing all the assigned homework. If a student does this, she or he will be assured of learning a lot and passing the course with a good grade.
