Paradigms:
Human beings are not merely biological; they rather are bio-cultural and spiritual beings. All humans have bio-psychological potentials that enable them to understand their environment, to think critically and rationally, to create, and to solve problems. Therefore, I strongly believe that all students can learn. The role of a teacher is, thus, to create conducive environments for learning and help students develop their intelligence rather than pouring lots of information into their minds.
Teaching history is more than presenting facts. The theoretical foundations of my teaching style are constructivist and experiential learning theories. Therefore, I often try to apply different instructional strategies derived from these theories which include cooperative learning, field trips, and inquiry-based learning.
Core Values:
Accessibility, adaptability, empathy, humility, joy, open-mindedness, peace, offering service, significance, simplicity, and stability

Acerca de mí
Teaching has always been my passion. I have a modest understanding of Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPCK) to teach history at any educational level. Additionally, I have strong interpersonal skills.
