Hello, and thank you for visiting my page. I am Gerard Hall, and I possess over a decade of national and international teaching experience in diverse settings, working with an array of learners from K-12 to the collegiate level. Along with my experience, I hold a Bachelor of Science in Psychology, and a Master’s degree in Teaching and Learning with Technology. Currently, I am pursuing doctoral studies in education.
I believe that every student possesses the capacity to learn if given the opportunity. It is with this mindset of inclusivity that I strive to create lessons that are exciting, engaging, and student-centered. In my classroom, I seek to activate my students’ curiosity and sharpen their critical thinking skills. Above all else, I encourage students to have fun while learning.
