Teaching

My teaching experiences have been many and varied - and each has helped inform my approach as an instructor. I incorporate experiential learning, research-based pedagogy, and a flexible, student-centered approach to all of my teaching. My hope is that every student I work with feels that their whole self is welcome in my classroom, that they leave understanding how the subject material covered connects to their passions and goals, and that they are supported during the learning process by pedagogy that helps them grow as students, both during and after my course.
