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.

My own education history
