Teaching style
I am all about trying new things! I would consider my style to be relaxed and play or experience oriented. I hate the idea of homework and I love to instill a natural love of learning with my students. I especially like to create hands-on experiences with oft-hated subject areas like social science and math.
Two things I feel especially passionate about: full inclusivity in classrooms and social justice education.
