About Me

I believe the classroom is an interconnected community and that everyone, from teacher, to students and parents, must contribute to maintain a positive learning climate. Students are individuals that all learn in unique ways. Therefore, I use multiple methods of teaching (linguistic, visual, auditory, kinesthetic) to reach varied learners so that no one is left behind. Everyone in the learning environment is a contributor as a student, teacher, and thinker. I have, of course, learned from my students as much as they have learned from me. One way I reinforce mutual learning, in my class, is to provide regular feedback to students. I ask students lots of questions. They also complete course evaluations, where they reflect on the course, their goals and relay on whether the course is helping them meet their individual goals so far. Students are very insightful and always provide me with useful information that allows me to improve my delivery in the classroom. I believe we never stop learning and growing intellectually. I understand that my job is to guide students on their learning journeys. Lastly, I will always provide a safe environment where students feel comfortable sharing their ideas and uninhibited to take risks that aid in learning.
