Teaching Philosophy

My teaching philosophy revolves around three core principles: engagement, feedback, and active learning. When students are actively engaged in the learning process, they significantly improve their understanding and retention of knowledge. To achieve this, I strive to create a classroom environment that is inclusive and relevant to students' lives, fostering curiosity and participation. Additionally, providing timely and constructive feedback is crucial for their growth, helping them identify areas for improvement and guiding their progress. Lastly, I strongly advocate for active learning, where students actively participate in their education through hands-on experiences, collaborative projects, and self-directed learning. By integrating these principles into my teaching approach, I aim to empower students to grasp the subject matter and apply their knowledge effectively in real-world situations, fostering a lifelong love for learning. 

I have also I have designed a senior undergraduate and graduate level course that welcome student across the filed  biology, engineering, arts and posology, titled  "Multidisciplinary Multidisciplinary Robotics"
