Philosophy

Teaching and learning are so tightly enmeshed that it is impossible to explore one without investigating the other. Teaching must be defined in the context of the classroom, but also more broadly in the context of continuing education. Building and implementing an effective teaching philosophy helps students approach learning as a lifelong venture.
