Philosophy of Education:

Why are you in the educational field? I am currently teaching because I want to help kids develop their academic and social skills, while finding out what they are passionate about.

How do you teach? My teaching philosophy is to allow for students to be the center of instruction, allowing for them to lead discussions. I act as the facilitator.

What will students be doing in your classroom? Students will be completing many interdisciplinary projects that are connected to the real world.
