My Teaching
I am experienced at developing and teaching Exercise Science curriculum for students in for all stages of tertiary degree learning. My teaching philosophy centers on the principle of lifelong learning. I believe that education is an ongoing process that extends beyond formal education. By fostering a growth mindset, creating inclusive learning environments, experimental learning, and with value placed on formative feedback, I aim to equip my students with the skills to be self-directed learners. Through this philosophy, I aspire to instill in my students a lifelong quest for personal and professional growth and knowledge acquisition.
