Teaching style
Key tenants to my educational philosophy:
* Learning is a lifelong process.
* All can learn - just not at the same rate/method. (Thank goodness! How
boring would it be if we were all the same?)
* Mistakes are the evidence of learning in progress.
* Every day may not be good - but there's something good in every day!
* It's acceptable to not know how, it's not acceptable to not try.
