My teaching philosophy is based on my learning experiences as a student. I enjoyed and learned most from teachers who were engaging and passionate about their field of study. Therefore, I have constantly strived to cultivate an active and engaging environment in my classroom and laboratory. Besides didactic coursework, I actively lead small group discussions and workshops.
