I am passionate about teaching, and have experience teaching individuals, small groups, and large lecture classes at levels from second grade to advanced undergraduates. I believe that a good teacher creates a space where all students can try, fail, and learn safely and without judgment. I adhere to Federico Ardila's axioms for education:
Axiom 1. Mathematical potential is equally present in different groups, irrespective of geographic, demographic, and economic boundaries.
Axiom 2. Everyone can have joyful, meaningful, and empowering mathematical experiences.
Axiom 3. Mathematics is a powerful, malleable tool that can be shaped and used differently by various communities to serve their needs.
Axiom 4. Every student deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.
