Teaching style
I strive for inquiry-based and experiential lessons. I believe students will succeed more when lessons are relevant, cross-curricular, and encourage deep thinking.

Additional biographical information
I primarily create unit plans and Creative Commons textbooks. After observations, summer school programs, and substituting, I've decided to make changes to our education system from outside the classroom. I've completed the Maths Education Program, but decided to graduate without continuing on to student teaching and certification.
