My educational philosophy

I believe that students learn best by doing. As John Dewey emphasized, education should be rooted in real-life experiences that allow children to think, explore, and create meaning for themselves. As teachers, it is our role to guide and challenge students to reach their fullest potential, helping them discover that they are capable of more than they imagine.

One interesting fact about me

I am a music lover (even though music doesn’t always love me back! 🎶). I’m also a huge fan of Taylor Swift, and I especially connect with her lyric “Long live all the magic we made,” which reflects my joy in creating meaningful memories with my students. I also love exploring and trying new things.
