Jean’s teaching philosophy is to create a welcoming and open learning environment that encourages strong critical thinking skills and problem solving skills while challenging students to develop sound clinical reasoning and engagement in evidence based practice.

Jean’s primary teaching focus is on neurological clinical skills, instructing in PHTH 544, PHTH 564 and PHTH 548 as well as coordinating PHTH 564.
