Experience
I have taught high school science for seven years. I currently teach Physics and AP Physics 1. I have previously taught biology, chemistry and medical chemistry at the same high school.
Teaching style
I teach at a AVID National Demonstration School and like to incorporate lots of AVID strategies into my classroom, such as focused notes, graphic organizers, essential questions, inquiry and collaboration. I use a backwards by design approach to my instruction, where I start with the end goal in mind; I identify the essential standards at the beginning of the unit and share these with my students so that they begin with a goal in mind and then develop all experiments, activities and assessments around these essential standards. I aim to create fun learning experiences to spark students' curiosity in science and create life long learners.
