Teaching methodology

My teaching methodology for AP Computer Science A focuses on **Flexibility**, **Integrity**, and **Problem-solving**. I believe in adapting my lessons to meet each students learning style, whether they prefer hands-on coding exercises or step-by-step explanations of concepts. This flexibility ensures that students grasp the material at their own pace, building confidence along the way. **Integrity** is a key principle in my teaching. I ensure that students receive accurate and reliable information, and I encourage them to follow ethical practices in coding, such as writing clean, efficient code and understanding its real-world applications. **Problem-solving** is at the heart of computer science, and I guide students through coding challenges to strengthen their critical thinking skills. By breaking down complex problems into smaller, manageable tasks, students learn to approach coding challenges logically and methodically. In addition to AP Computer Science A, I can also teach related subjects like programming, algorithms, and data structures to further support students in their tech journey.
