Teaching Philosophy
I believe that teaching should consist of meeting students where they are, engaging their interests, and promoting active learning and growth mindsets.
Patrick_Phelps__Teaching_Statement.pdfCommitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
The field of mathematics can only benefit from promoting diversity and inclusion, and to grow the field I am committed to these ideals in my pedagogy. With regards to equity I believe that without a meaningful understanding of the student backgrounds, and what they may be facing, we cannot properly serve our students.
