Teaching
At its best, the university classroom can be a place that cultivates a more just, inclusive, and fairer society. In order to achieve this general good, effective university pedagogy should promote freedom of expression, nurture responsible citizenship, and provide avenues for social mobility. My practice as an academic teacher is bolstered and shaped by my over 20 years of experience as an educator in academic settings, community-based venues, and informal classrooms. Solidly grounded in a vocation that spans more than two decades, my academic teaching supports four key principles: reflective practice, teaching across difference, social relevance, and student-centred learning.
Reflective practice
Teaching across difference
Social relevance
Student-centred learning
