Higher Education Teaching
My K-12 teaching experience ignited my passion for higher education, where I can support preservice teachers by sharing my experiences and knowledge with them. I have had bout three years of higher ed teaching experience.
The majority of my previous teaching experience has been in both the U.S.A. and Taiwan, which allows me to bring a unique perspective rooted in my heritage and experiences. With a strong understanding of pedagogies, I am eager to contribute my international perspective, commitment to inclusive education, and research experience to the role of educating and inspiring the next generation of learners.
