TEACHING INTERESTS
My teaching philosophy is defined by three core pillars: engagement, interactivity, and academic rigor. I believe that the most profound learning occurs when students are challenged to bridge the gap between theoretical concepts and their practical application. My objective therefore is to empower students to arrive at solutions independently, to foster the critical and analytical thinking skills essential for scientific inquiry. I also consciously try to link concepts together to assist students in constructing cohesive conceptual maps. Importantly, while my core pedagogical values have remained consistent, my execution of these principles has actively evolved. By proactively collecting and integrating feedback from both peer mentors and my students, I have refined my ability to adapt to the unique needs of each cohort, ensuring that my teaching methods remain responsive and effective.
