Teaching style
My teaching style is profoundly student-focused, placing the learning process directly in the hands of the students. I act as a facilitator of learning, guiding and supporting my students as they explore and discover new concepts. By empowering students to take ownership of their education, I foster an environment where they are actively engaged and invested in their learning journey. This approach not only cultivates critical thinking and problem-solving skills but also nurtures a sense of responsibility and independence in each student.
