About the store

Experience

I have over a decade of teaching experience at the high school and community college levels since 2012. My experience spans Florida and Massachusetts and includes Biology, Environmental Science, Physics, Marine Science, and Oceanography.

Teaching style

My teaching philosophy centers on the belief that students learn science best by doing science. I prioritize hands-on labs, real-world experiences, and problem-solving tasks that allow students to think critically, ask questions, and learn through exploration. Rather than memorizing facts, students are encouraged to investigate phenomena, analyze data, collaborate with peers, and apply concepts to authentic situations. Lessons are designed to be engaging, accessible, and purposeful—helping students build confidence as scientists while developing skills they can transfer beyond the classroom. I value curiosity, perseverance, and creative thinking, and I intentionally design activities that challenge students to make sense of the world, test ideas, and revise their thinking. Through inquiry-based learning and meaningful experiences, my goal is to help students see science as something they do, not just something they learn.
