Teaching style

My teaching style is rooted in trauma-informed care, restorative justice, and community building, with a strong foundation in psychology and child development. I believe that learning happens best in safe, supportive environments where every student feels seen and valued. I also love bringing a little weirdness and humor into my lessons to spark curiosity, lower barriers, and make the classroom a place where students can relax and engage. My resources are designed to foster connection, creativity, and critical thinking while keeping things fun and meaningful.
