Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.

My approach to teaching is rooted in the belief that every student has unique strengths, interests, and learning styles. I strive to create a classroom environment where students feel safe to take risks, ask questions, and explore their curiosities.

I emphasize the development of critical thinking skills over rote memorization, preparing students not just for tests, but for life beyond the classroom. By integrating real-world applications and project-based learning, I help students see the relevance of their education to their own lives and future aspirations.

Technology, when used purposefully, can be a powerful tool for differentiation and engagement. I incorporate digital tools not as replacements for traditional teaching, but as enhancements that allow for personalized learning paths and collaborative opportunities.
