I didn't choose teaching, it chose me.
At the age of ten, I skipped home from school with my prized possession-- a language book that I had purchased from my teacher. I ran home and made all my friends homework sheets--and I haven't stopped teaching since. I love teaching and whether in an academic setting or in a business setting, I find that there is a great joy in guiding people in the learning process.
I Believe...
Learning can be fun!
Learning should be a lifelong pursuit
Students have as much to teach me as I have to teach them
When we work together, we can take learning to a deeper level
Deep learning only happens when individuals are challenged
