I strive to help students cultivate an adaptable skill set based on problem decomposition, a quantitative understanding of foundational theories, and, most importantly, intuition about the physical nature of both compressible and incompressible fluids. My teaching philosophy emphasizes the University Design Learning approach to curriculum planning that makes learning engaging and accessible to a wide range of learners with different strengths and needs. I operationalize this by using visuals and animations to activate background knowledge and vocabulary, establishing several forms of student assessment, and providing multiple means of engagement to fuel student autonomy.
