Teaching Philosophy
I believe that my role as an instructor is to facilitate learning by creating an environment where students are actively engaged in the learning process. In this environment, nursing students will be challenged to pursue knowledge, general nursing skills, and critical thinking skills necessary for success.

I will strive to create student-centered classes, embracing the various learning styles among my students, and pass on the knowledge and skills that will enable students to fulfill their goals. My goal as a nurse educator is to develop students with strong critical thinking skills who will become competent, compassionate nurses and leaders in the nursing profession.
