Teaching
My central goals in teaching are:
- To teach students to think critically,
- To increase students’ comfort with quantitative science,
- To create an inclusive classroom environment.
I work to achieve these goals using evidence-based teaching strategies, especially active learning techniques. My teaching philosophy builds on my experiences as an undergraduate student at a student-centered university where I witnessed first-hand what engages students, what inspires them to learn, and what encourages them to think creatively about science. I aim to replicate this type of learning environment in my courses.
