Teaching style

Teaching and and learning occur when teachers and learners work together to co-construct knowledge. Teaching and learning is an active process that is purposeful, has meaning and involves critical reflection. My approach to nursing education includes designing activities that encourage students to reflect, think critically and apply their knowledge to their practice.

As a nurse educator, my goal is to guide students in becoming; critical and rational thinkers; self-directed learners who are eager to learn, ask questions and reflect on their education and practice; effective communicators who can discuss, and problem solve; evolving professionals who uphold standards of care and service to the public; and knowledge workers with scholarly abilities and who use evidence to inform their practice. I am enthusiastic in my teaching, I am flexible, and believe every student can be successful.
