I believe that all students are capable of learning whatever it is that their hearts desire. I believe it is a teacher's responsibility to ensure that students are given the tools necessary to succeed academically. I believe that students don't know what they don't know and it is my responsibility, my job to give them the information they don't yet know they will need. I believe, if given the opportunity, resources and support, a student will rise to the expectation.
For questions on what I teach, how I teach and my thoughts on teaching here are some links that may help:
