Educational
Philosophy
“I believe that learning
is most meaningful when students solve problems intelligently
and on their own. My responsibility is to provide just enough
information to guide them toward the solutions that I know they
are seeking. When students venture beyond connecting the dots
to discover the systemic pattern underlying those dots,
profound learning takes place.”
