Teaching Philosophy
鈥淎s the field of pharmacy advances and more information will continue to expand, my most important role as an educator is to train students the skills they need to be well-rounded practitioners. I provide as much hands-on experiences through incorporating cases in didactic courses and active learning activities in lab or skill courses. I believe these methods allow me to train students to develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. In experiential education, I focus on a goal-oriented environment where I not only set expectations on what students need to accomplish by the end of their rotation, but they are also welcomed to set their own goals. I found this strategy valuable to engage and motivate my students in their own learning.鈥�
