About

My teaching philosophy and approach, which focuses on building trust and sharing personal experiences with students, aligns with a pedagogical framework known as Authentic Teaching. This approach is widely supported by academic research and is data-driven, demonstrating that humanizing the classroom by sharing the instructor's experiences, identities, and background fosters student success both inside and outside the classroom.
