Experience

I have been teaching science to middle school students since 2005. I primarily work in 7th grade life science, but I've taught chemistry, earth and space science, and physical science. I've taught ELA for a few years as well. I sponsor a STEM club and science fair.

Teaching style

I believe in making science fun and engaging. If I can spark true interest and activate their imagination, my teaching can extend beyond the classroom.
