The image I designed, simply a circle with the word student in it, is a metaphor that represents how much I value student-centred teaching in my practice.

Student centred teaching is central to me because whenever our class think up class and individual learning goals together, it’s not based on what I think, but rather, what they want and need to study in their everyday lives.  That way, there’s motivation, it’s meaningful with purpose and our students can build upon previous knowledge into future lessons and even outside the classroom and the course.

So, the simply metaphor, the circle with the word student in it, reminds me to think of student needs with goals that are student and class derived.
