About the store

Experience

I have taught various science classes for 12 years, including: biology, chemistry, physical science, and earth science.

Teaching style

Students have changed a lot over the last 20 years. I think that teachers must incorporate technology and implement more creative measures into the teaching process in order to grasp the students' focus on our subject matter.

Awards & shining teacher moments

I received a certificate in recognition of my performance on the Principles of Learning and Teaching Praxis: Grades 7-12 in 2007. My score on the test ranked within the top 15% of all test takers of that particular assessment in the history of the test.

My own education history

I have a B.S. in Biology from Coastal Carolina Universtiy, a Masters in secondary education from Pensacola Christian College, and a Masters from Grand Canyon University also in secondary education. (The degree from Pensacola certifies me to teach in Christian schools and the degree from Grand Canyon certifies me to teach in public schools.)

Additional biographical information

I love to teach!
