Teaching is a privilege, and I embrace my responsibility to facilitate meaningful learning. I am committed to ensuring that students remain actively engaged and deeply involved in their educational journey. As part of my Ph.D. minor, I completed coursework in pedagogy and learning theory. I value the insights gained from student evaluations and continually refine my teaching materials and practices.
