Philosophy

I believe that the most important aspect of adult education is showing learners why something matters. Accomplishing this goal is the heart of all my work.

Creativity takes an essential role in my teaching and communication. By finding ways to spark the interest of learners, I strive to encourage their natural curiosity to understand subject matter.
