Teaching style
Student-led and teacher-facilitated learning is what I strive for. I want students to feel empowered to take ownership of their learning and I do that by encouraging choice and action based on intrinsic motivation. I also advocate for "beyond the walls" learning, meaning engaging with the outside world with content being learned inside.
