About me
My teaching methodology includes incorporating experiments, technology, and visual representations, and offering extracurricular help to make certain that each student is able to grasp the materials and concepts in whichever manner suits him/her the best. I hope to make the students that I interact with somehow richer from their experience(s) with me. A part of my role as a teacher is to facilitate the learning of factual information and key principles, however my job only begins there. When I think back to the outstanding teachers in my life that helped mold me into the person I am today, I remember those teachers that truly motivated me to reach new heights, those that stimulated my ability to think critically and to understand the subject matter on a deeper level, those that imparted their passion for learning on me, and especially those that gave a certain unquantifiable piece of themselves (can I call it love?) that in many ways transformed my intellect, my attitudes, my goals, and my life. I aspire to be this kind of a teacher.
