Quote:

"I get excited when students evolve from information seekers to problem solvers. This inspires me to create learning activities which provide students with the opportunity to identify problems, formulate questions, and seek well developed answers. My energy is renewed when I am able to observe a student take one of my learning activities and turn it into a learning experience.

Parenting, gardening, reading, observing weather patterns, caring for animals.
