Teaching philosophy
My teaching-learning philosophy most closely aligns with elements of constructivism and pragmatism. I welcome students to bring and utilize their prior knowledge and experiences. I strive to act as a guide, a facilitator and a role model, linking together theory and clinical practice. I draw from my clinical experience to provide clinical and relevant experiential knowledge in my teaching.
