Teaching style
My teaching style is heavily based on my belief that kids are full human beings, capable of so much more than many give them credit for. Most of my assignments and projects are open-ended. I also provided many opportunities for my students to think critically and creatively, as well as actively be creative.

Absolutely no AI has been or ever will be used during any step of my creative process.
