Teaching Philosophy
My role as an educator is to guide students in developing their own
learning styles. I want to adhere to a culturally relevant pedagogy as I
view multiple perspectives of a diverse group of students. I also want to
create an inclusive environment where all students feel welcome and
safe. My goal as an educator is to help make an impact in equity that is
needed in our classrooms to further our students' education, and to help
create a positive societal change through our youth.
