Teaching Philosophy

My philosophy of teaching is centered around creating a positive learning environment for my students. This includes connecting with them outside of the classroom experience, showing compassion and flexibility, and promoting critical thinking through active learning and real-world applications. I challenge my students with problem-solving activities and provide a range of resources to help them grasp concepts. Additionally, I believe in continuing my own education through workshops, seminars, and research. For me, teaching and learning are intertwined, and I am committed to being a lifelong learner.

Outside Interests

Spending time with my family, traveling, swimming, hiking, biking, gardening, and reading.
