The foundations of my teaching philosophy are: to be a good communicator, to provide students with the tools to be lifelong learners, and to be an enthusiastic motivator. I strive every day to be a good listener, to guide instruction rather than lecture, and to foster an environment where students feel safe in expressing their thoughts and ideas. It is through these areas that I make my classes a personally rewarding experience for the students.

The complete education of a student should include the understanding and appreciation of the physical laws that govern the universe as well as their local surroundings. It’s a privilege to teach a subject that empowers the student to understand why events happen, and how they can be changed to an outcome that benefits all of us.

My teaching philosophy is to make myself not so much an expert in my field, but a partner in learning. I believe that every good teacher, in his or her own way, gives more to students than just content. Instilling values, whether they be honesty, integrity, good morals, or a ‘can-do attitude’ is just as important as the content being presented. Above all, my hope is that my students become empowered by their own learning.

I love my profession! As long as I remain passionate about teaching, I will continue to do it. Encouraging our students to be committed to what they’re doing is one of my goals. The education our students get is good, but if they develop their passion along with it, this might propel them from mediocrity to greatness.
