​I have taught courses in different levels (i.e., undergraduate and graduate students), content areas (e.g., educational/developmental psychology, research methods), and modes of instruction (i.e., face-to-face and online). Based on my teaching experiences, and on my research findings, my teaching philosophy is that a classroom should be a space for students to develop their knowledge, explore and challenge their own ideas, and collaborate with their peers. I strive to realize this philosophy by supporting students’ mastery goals (i.e., aiming to understanding materials and developing competence) and encouraging peer learning.

TE 150 Reflections on Learning

I taught a face-to-face undergraduate course in the Department of Teacher Education at Michigan State University for the last three years (2014-2017). I helped students understand not only what constitutes typical learning and development, but more importantly, the mechanisms that cause these changes. I also encouraged students to reflect on cultural issues in classrooms and discuss intercultural interactions related to teaching and learning experiences.
