What is your teaching philosophy?
My interest in teaching is to remove obstacles, both real and imagined, so that students may have greater access to their innate learning potential. I believe my extensive background as a scientist and performer for over 15 years gives me a unique skill set to create a learning environment. I am genuinely interested in the interface between the content students are asked to learn in school for tests, and how they may apply that knowledge in the real world. Especially in sciences and math, material can seem abstract or complicated, and I like to move between the larger picture into the specifics, so students can keep engaged and interested. Learning can be fun! I wish to bring to all my students a sense of possibility and excitement in order to activate and empower curiosity and help them become rigorous life-long learners.
