Although I graduated with a science degree, I study philosophy and history...

...logic though, and Creighton offered a mathematical logic minor that was perfect for my interests and learning style. This education, combined with my experience as a teacher in Creighton's "Philosophy for Children" program, has helped me to understand that teaching, one-on-one or in a classroom setting, is something that I'm passionate about. I believe that dialogue between mentor and pupil, much in the style of Plato's works, is the most effective way of imparting knowledge....

I believe that fostering independence in students, especially in terms of critical thinking skills and flexible problem solving,...
