My teaching style is supportive, structured, and interactive. I aim to make complex concepts easy to understand by breaking them down into manageable steps. Each student will feel empowered to take charge of their future while receiving clear guidance throughout the process. I focus on a student-centered approach, encouraging students to explore their own ideas and solutions while providing resources and suggestions when needed.

Video Lessons: Each module includes an instructional video where I explain key concepts, share examples, and provide encouragement.
Bi-Weekly & Weekly Check-Ins: After completing the weekly assignments, students will have the opportunity to submit their work for feedback. I will provide personalized comments and suggestions to help them refine their plans.
Discussion and Reflection: Students will have the chance to reflect on their progress and share their thoughts or questions through weekly prompts. I encourage students to share their ideas and goals to foster a collaborative learning experience.
Support and Guidance: Throughout the course, students can reach out to me with specific questions via email or the course platform’s messaging system. I am committed to providing ongoing support as students work through their transition plans.
