Teaching Philosophy

It is my belief that anyone can learn anything with the proper instruction and support. Every individual is born with a unique set of talents and abilities that impact the way we learn and interact with the world around us. Each person is motivated by different things and it is our role as educators at the K-12 and post-secondary level to ensure that the educational needs of all our students can be met in the classroom environment.

"It is easier to build strong children, than to repair broken men. "

–Frederick Douglass
"The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character — that is the goal of true education."

–Martin Luther King, Jr.
"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."

- Nelson Mandela
