Teaching Philosophy
I believe in fostering a growth mindset in my classroom, where mistakes are seen as learning opportunities and effort leads to improvement. I encourage students to take risks, embrace challenges, and develop resilience through perseverance. By creating a supportive environment that values progress over perfection, I help students build confidence, motivation, and a lifelong love of learning.
