As a teacher, I strive to discover how each student processes and interprets information and then tailor my lessons to meet individual needs. Along with subject information, I incorporate visual and tactile examples when relevant and always encourage students to follow their own curiosity about a subject.

A wise man once said; to learn, read; to know, write. But to master, teach. Teach is one of those nifty reflexive verbs where the teacher and pupil are interchangeable. If both are patient, resourceful, imaginative and caring the learning becomes less process and more flow. This is always my goal in teaching: creating a positive and flexible environment for all the principles involved. And of course, frequently there must be laughter.
