Teaching style
I am an adaptable and dynamic teacher. I am always available to my students when they need me, whether it is school or personal concerns. I enjoy creating an engaged and active classroom where students feel like they can comfortably share their opinions in an open and respectful manner. I encourages students to engage in debate in a variety of social and literary ideas.
