Teaching Philosophy:
I believe that learning is an ongoing, dynamic process that expands the lifecycle. As we grow and mature, our abilities and the way we learn change. Therefore, I see myself as a teacher needing to be flexible, adaptive, and understanding of different ways of learning. I strive to keep the classroom environment stimulating and encourage the students to learn from a variety of resources, including themselves and their peers. I also know that I can learn a lot from my students and encourage them to contribute to the learning environment on a regular basis. In teaching nursing, it is important to develop a sense of caring throughout the curriculum, as this is the essence of a good nurse.
