Teaching & projects

I believe in creating a student-centered learning environment in my classroom in which students assumes primary responsibility for their own learning. In my perspective, the optimal classroom setting is one that prioritises student-centered learning. I endeavour to design educational situations wherein students engage in collaborative activities, while I navigate between groups to facilitate discourse.
