Teaching style
I believe that teachers need the right tools to do their jobs effectively and that students should have access to curriculum that is both developmentally and chronologically appropriate for them. My background is in behavior analysis so I believe in clearly defined expectations for behavior and consistent and systematic reinforcement of correct responding. I also believe that with the right tools, training and support, teachers can make a significant difference in the life of any child.
