Teaching Philosophy

01

Student-Centered Learning

In the age of AI, curiosity is our superpower, and my role is to cultivate it through autonomous learning and student-led exploration. I design classrooms where students take ownership of their learning, actively engage in problem-solving, and build knowledge through research and dialogue. This approach empowers them to take responsibility for their education and develop a lasting passion for lifelong learning.

Connecting Theory to Practice

To make learning more relevant and engaging, I integrate case studies, current events, and scenario-based discussions into my courses. This approach strengthens critical thinking and helps students see that public administration is all around them, shaping the communities they live in and the decisions that affect their daily lives.

02

Inclusive and Global Perspectives

As an instructor with an international background, I prioritize creating a culturally responsive and inclusive classroom. I incorporate diverse voices and underrepresented perspectives to encourage critical reflection on equity and social structures. This approach helps students become compassionate, informed leaders in an increasingly globalized world.
