Teaching Philosophy
I believe that every student has a unique voice and the capacity to grow when given the right support and inspiration. My teaching focuses on cultivating communication skills, analytical thinking and a love for language through inquiry-based learning, collaboration and creativity. I aim to empower learners to think independently, express themselves confidently and become global citizens.
