Catherine Reed's personal pedagogical framework focuses on creating a safe, supportive learning environment and enabling lifelong learning skills. Her framework is informed by humanism, constructivism, behaviourism, cognitivism, and connecting learning to real world experiences. She aims to be a teacher, facilitator, and role model who promotes respect, communication, diversity and high expectations.
