My teaching practice spans a range of contexts, from online professional courses to university-level programs, with a strong focus on active, learner-centered approaches. Across all settings, I aim to create engaging, inclusive, and practical learning experiences that help learners develop both knowledge and skills they can apply immediately.
Key principles of my teaching include:
Inquiry-Based and Problem-Driven Learning
Drawing on my research in PBL (Problem-Based Learning) pedagogy, I design learning experiences that begin with authentic problems and invite learners to explore, question, and investigate. I aim to cultivate curiosity and empower learners to take an active role in constructing their understanding.
Metacognition and Reflective Practice
I intentionally integrate self-reflection into my sessions, encouraging learners to examine their thinking, choices, and progress. By using metacognitive strategies, I aim to strengthen their self-belief, independence, and confidence as learners.
Skills-Focused and Real-World Application
My work on generic skills has significantly influenced how I design instruction. Whether in academic or professional settings, I emphasise transferable skills, collaboration, communication, problem-solving, and analytical thinking, that learners can immediately apply in real-world contexts.
