TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have been teaching for more than 15 years and have taught Biomedical Science courses for the past 11 years.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I LOVE teaching and think teaching and learning should be a blast for students and teachers and do everything I can to make it fun and ensure that my students become excellent communicators and scientists. I love inquiry and incorporating games and real-world connections whenever possible. I make my classroom a community and encourage collaboration between students, but I also incorporate some friendly competition.
