I am passionate about creating a learning environment where students feel safe, supported, and inspired to grow. In my classroom, taking academic risks—whether that means tackling a challenging problem, asking a question, or trying a new approach—is celebrated as an essential part of learning. I believe students must experience what success feels like in order to recognize its value and turn it into a habit worth keeping, and I am committed to guiding them toward that feeling of success. My goal is for every student to leave my class not only with stronger skills and deeper understanding, but also with the confidence to continue learning long after the year ends.
