With a strong background in Sociology, I am passionate about teaching Government and empowering students to develop a deep understanding and appreciation for the subject. My teaching philosophy is centered around making Government accessible, enjoyable, and relevant to real-life situations. I utilize sociological perspectives to provide a nuanced understanding of government structures and processes. By incorporating sociological theories and concepts, I help students analyze and understand the complexities of government. I employ engaging and interactive approaches to make the Government enjoyable and relevant. By incorporating debates, discussions, and real-world applications, I make Government come alive for my students. I focus on individualized instruction, catering to diverse learning styles and abilities to ensure each student reaches their full potential. By getting to know my students and understanding their strengths and weaknesses, I can tailor my teaching to meet their unique needs. I inspire students to develop a genuine passion for Government, recognizing its importance and relevance to everyday life.
