Teaching Philosophy

My approach to teaching is to build a collaborative community of learning and to be a lifelong learner. The path to academic success and engagement is strengthened with the partnerships that are formed, found, and created within the academic journey. Encouraging ideas and thoughts to re-inform what they know and what they want to know builds their curiosity and desire to participate as researchers. Think, learn, grow, and transform ideas into creative thoughts and the desire for knowledge – this creates a lifelong learner.
