About Me
My Core Philosophy
I believe that the best way to understand the world is by building it. My teaching
centers on empowering students to explore the boundaries of physics and technology through creative,
hands-on learning, where ideas are tested through design, experimentation, and iteration. By engaging
with real systems, students move beyond memorization to develop deep conceptual understanding, critical
thinking, and the confidence to solve unfamiliar problems.
Equally important is cultivating a safe and supportive learning environment. I strive to create a space
where curiosity is encouraged, questions are welcomed, and mistakes are treated as part of the learning
process rather than something to be avoided. Students should feel comfortable sharing ideas, attempting
challenging tasks, and learning at their own pace without fear of judgment. Through open dialogue,
mutual respect, and constructive guidance, I aim to foster resilience, collaboration, and a genuine
sense of ownership over learning so that every student feels valued, capable, and motivated to grow.
