Summary

My educational philosophy is to develop an inclusive classroom by incorporating universal design for learning while fostering an engaging learning community. Students learn best when given choice and variation in content, product, and assessment. I emphasize competencies through inquiry-based learning, critical thinking challenges, collaboration, discussion, and vertical learning.
