About the store
I currently teach AP Psychology, and CP Psychology (11th and 12th grades) at Enochs High School in Modesto CA, and have been doing so since 2009. I have been teaching since 1993.

Teaching style

Mostly direct instruction, with tons of demos, activities and labs. My attitude is that I want my kids DOING Psychology as much as possible, whether in the lab or in the "real world."

Awards & shining teacher moments

Can't say I have ever been honored but I was featured in a district newsletter for my work with resource students. I get good reports from my colleagues whose kids have taken my class. I have had people tell me for years that my curriculum was great and that I should sell it...well, here it is...I think that the quality of the materials speaks for itself.

My own education history

BA Psychology California State University Stanislaus 90' Multiple subject clear credential Chapman University Single subject clear credential (Social Science) Chapman University

Additional biographical information

I am always on the lookout for a new lab or activity idea. Since I teach psychology full time that is naturally where I allocate the most effort. While my materials are mostly Psychology related, you will also find World History, Statistics, General Mathematics and Art mixed in.
