TEACHING PHILOSOPHY

My Philosophy of education is that teaching is something that comes from the heart. It is a lifelong process of learning, whether from your students, family, colleagues, or life experiences. Student education should be intentional with researched methods. The classroom should be a place where students can make mistakes, form friendships, and learn to be the leaders of tomorrow. Within every student lies the seed of greatness, and education plays a crucial part in nurturing its growth. Every child has the potential to learn. My goal is to teach with intention, listen attentively to my students, and learn alongside them.
