Teaching Philosophy
The teacher's role is to act as a player-coach. Students should be encouraged to participate and collaborate.

The sharing of thoughts and ideas should occur in a safe, but not sanitized, environment and technology must be incorporated into most classes. These five essential elements are conducive to learning.
