Experience

Teaching style

Her educational philosophy can be summed up as such, "Why NOT reinvent the wheel. Yesterday's lessons will not suffice for students to succeed in tomorrow's world. We need to meet students, not just where they are, but where they need to be. There is great potential in every child. It is our job to empower students to discover that potential and possess the tenacity and self-efficacy to reach it. "
