Hobbies
When I'm not teaching, you can find me watching sports, reading, or planning my next trip. I love being outdoors and being active. Going to the cottage, hiking, and being around water are some of my favourite things. I'm also an avid reader, podcaster, and writer. I believe we all need to put into practice what we preach. Want to become a better reader? You have to read. Want to improve your writing skills? You must write. Reading is a great way to not only improve language skills, but to learn. Some of our favourites include: - Ego is the Enemy - The Art of Learning - What is the What - East of Eden - Different Seasons - The Laws of Human Nature Whatever we're doing, I believe in cultivating better habits and being productive. This is the mindset I bring to the classroom and impart on my students.
