As a teacher, my goal is to perpetuate knowledge and help my students to develop the skills necessary for lifelong learning. As a architecture who teaches courses on design, introduce students to the principles, process, tools and techniques of design visualization that will become the foundation of their ability to problem solve and communicate visually throughout their education and into their professional careers. This involves not only presenting a body of knowledge appropriate to the subject matter, but also teaching them important visual thinking skills. My teaching approach in the classroom seeks to accomplish these goals through several approaches: lectures, demonstrations and individual critiques. Since being successful at visualization and communication requires thoroughness and attention to detail, I try to reflect that in my lectures. I make every effort to not only make them complete and well organized, but also well designed, engaging and visually appealing.
