TEACHING EXPERIENCE

We are a collaboration of teaching and design experts.

MY TEACHING STYLE

We believe that inquiry based learning utilizing the engineering design process is the best way to facilitate children's learning. When teachers are the "guide on the side", it allows students to build upon their own curiosity and wonder about the world while learning necessary standards to be a well rounded student. Collaboration, communication, critical thinking, and creativity are the 4C's that need to happen in a classroom everyday. When the 4C's are incorporated student engagement increases which in turn increases student's learning.
