TEACHING

Teaching Philosophy

My teaching philosophy supports the notion that “learning and thinking go hand in hand

…and the aim of all learning is practical efficacy.” In the classroom I make every effort

to facilitate a collaborative learning environment whereby each student’s level of

engagement allows for the opportunity to participate in positive and meaningful dialogue,

promoting ideological and social diversity.
