TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
“My teaching philosophy is grounded in providing a stimulating educational environment where building relationships with students is at the forefront. I believe this helps enhance the students’ level of motivation, desire to learn, and overall learning ability. I want students to understand their potential in the classroom while building skills that go beyond the classroom, allowing true reflection and thinking for their future careers.”
