Utilizing a variety of technology tools such as interactive whiteboards, educational apps, and online platforms, I create a dynamic and immersive learning environment. I follow a carefully structured curriculum but remain flexible to address individual challenges and strengths. My goal is to foster critical thinking skills, boost confidence, and provide practical knowledge that prepares students for academic success and real-life decision-making. This personalized and holistic method ensures that every student not only excels academically but also develops a lasting appreciation for Economics.
