Teaching style
I like to use student-centered and skill-based teaching methodologies, emphasizing critical thinking, problem-solving and group collaboration. I believe it's important to keep students engaged with hands-on activities and to provide relevance of class material to the world beyond the classroom. I try to encourage students to become reflective leaders who can create a positive learning experience in any academic environment.
