About Me
SUBJECTS
EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY
That all students have different needs that should be met in the classroom. Also to create a classroom environment that honours all students individual experiences. I believe in diversified instruction and working as a facilitator by creating hands on activities for students. I also believe that all students may have individual methods to come to the same solutions, (eg. math) and to assist them in finding the methods that work the best for each of them.
I believe in fostering a caring and nurturing environment without judgement and that as a teacher my relationship with my students is reciprocal. I learn from my students as they learn from me.
EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND
