Matt has over twenty years of experience teaching at the university level. His approach to teaching is driven by a philosophy that values active learning and feedback over more traditional teaching models. In class, students spend a lot of time working on outcome-based, process-oriented projects in an environment that encourages instructor-student interaction.
