My teaching philosophy centers on making science accessible, engaging, and relevant to students' lives. Whether through hands-on experiments, real-world applications, or interdisciplinary projects, AVID, and Interactive notebooks. I strive to spark students’ natural curiosity and help them see themselves as capable scientists and problem-solvers. I am especially committed to closing opportunity gaps and ensuring that every student—regardless of their background—has the support, encouragement, and resources needed to succeed.
