I believe in active engagement and experiential learning, using a variety of teaching methods to cater to diverse learning styles. I emphasize the importance of relevance and real-life application of knowledge to bridge the gap between theory and practice. I encourage students to be lifelong learners, embracing challenges and seeking continuous self-improvement. Ethics and integrity are core values, and I instill these principles in students to make ethical decisions and contribute positively to society. I prioritize building a supportive and inclusive learning community where open dialogue and respect for diverse perspectives are encouraged. Ultimately, my goal is to inspire and empower students to become adaptable professionals and ethical leaders in the field of Information Technology and Health Information Management.
