Biography
Dr. Witt is a recent addition to our core faculty, beginning his first year of full-time teaching. He taught a few courses for Tyndale as a part-time instructor in 2018-2019. His area of specialty is the Old Testament, but you'll also find him teaching a New Testament survey course. Be on the look out for his classes related to the Psalms, Old Testament Theology, and Biblical Hebrew.
He was born and raised in Pittsburgh, PA, and completed most of his higher education in the States. He became a Christian in his first year of college, and knows how formative these four years can be in your lives. He has lived in Toronto since 2010. Hobbies include biking, photography, and hiking. Feel free to stop him and say hello!
