Teaching Philosophy:
- As a teacher, I create a trusting environment to encourage creative thinking and independence. I hold high expectations for myself and my students. I provide a safe and nurturing environment for each child to thrive socially and emotionally. I motivate, challenge and inspire curiosity within students. I believe students should learn through experiences and encourage academic growth through questioning. As a teacher, my goal is to be an inspiration and positive influence to my students to create a life-long love for learning.
