Experience

Teaching style

I enjoy a mix of hands-on, paired learning, lecture, and discussion. I try to incorporate pop culture, music, and movies where ever possible, as I find it appeals to students so much more, causing their learning to increase. It's like sneaking vegetables in your toddler's spaghetti sauce. My students don't always recognize when they are learning, because they are focused on enjoyment. That's what learning should be the majority of the time: fun!
