EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY

I have a love for education and enjoy seeing students succeed, especially those who are most challenged. Having been a student myself, in the online educational environment, I can appreciate the convenience and flexibility that online education has to offer. I am cognizant of the time commitment and other issues associated with completing a degree online. I understand difficulties that the online and classroom environment can bring and have applied workable solutions to these issues. In my experience, I have found that student success is directly affected by the amount and effectiveness of interaction with the instructor as well as classmates and the curriculum itself. A varied curriculum is vitally important, but the instructor’s role in facilitating classroom activities is also extremely important for student interaction and ultimately, their success.
