My teaching philosophy
As an instructor of statistics and psychology courses, I believe learning happens through asking questions and seeking understanding. I strive to create a classroom environment where students feel safe and encouraged to ask questions, critically think about and beyond course material, approach learning with reflection and humility, and develop skills for communicating their knowledge with others.
