Teaching Philosophy

My teaching philosophy is based on experiences I have had as a student and as a physical therapists.  I follow 4 fundamental aspects of teaching: 1) Make learning practical 2) Provide a “Big Picture” 3) Make learning functional to improve problem-solving skills, and most important 4) Make learning fun.
