About my approach:
I take a project-based and student-centered approach, meaning each lesson is tailored to the student’s learning style and goals. Whether we’re exploring AutoCAD, designing a 3D model in TinkerCAD, or building circuits, I break down complex concepts into manageable steps while encouraging exploration, problem-solving, and creativity.
I use a mix of visuals, simulations, and guided practice, paired with open discussion to check for understanding and spark curiosity. I also integrate real-world connections—so learners see how their skills apply beyond the classroom.
A Typical Lesson Plan Might Include:
1. Warm-Up & Recap: Quick review of previous skills or introduction to today’s topic
2. Mini-Lesson: Explanation with visual demos or modeling
3. Guided Activity: Hands-on practice or design/build session
4. Reflection & Discussion: What worked, what was learned, and next steps
5. Challenge/Extension: Optional advanced task or independent follow-up

• 13+ years of experience in STEM and engineering education
• Certified teacher in Technology Education and Science
