I am quite passionate about teaching and I am also quite passionate about human services and social justice.

My general teaching philosophy is based on experiential learning and the empowerment of the learner. I believe in providing students with the tools and resources that they need to be successful in the classroom. I strive to be accessible to my students to assist them at all stages in their learning process. I have found that they key to the online learning experience is maintaining a strong connection with my students. I have also worked hard to anticipate the needs of my students and in anticipating the needs of my students I can work hard to provide them with the tools they need to be successful in their studies.
