Teaching
My teaching is inspired by the belief that nursing education should be both engaging
and meaningful. I strive to bring energy and enthusiasm into every lesson so students
feel motivated and excited to learn.
I enjoy the classroom most when I see students making connections—when a concept “clicks”
because they have been actively involved in their own learning rather than passively
listening.
To make complex nursing content approachable, I incorporate active learning strategies
such as case studies, simulation, role-play, and group challenges. This keeps students
on their toes, encourages teamwork, and helps them retain knowledge long-term.
