About the store
I started teaching Mechanical Engineering at Cal Poly at 21 (I graduated a bit early!), and then started volunteering my time teaching in local high and jr high schools. I had also worked for NASA when I was 17 in addition to being a pilot, and all these things combined catapulted me into a life-long career in education and sharing my love for learning and science with others.

BUNDLE Geology Lesson Plans
These are 12 of my best lesson plans on geology that teaches the big ideas behind rocks, minerals, and the science of geology. Students fluoresce minerals, chemically react rocks, streak powders, scratch glass, and play with atomic bonds as they learn how to be a real field geologist.
You are about to become a real geologist as you explore the world of rocks, crystals, gems, fossils, and minerals by moving beyond just looking at pretty stones and really being able to identify, test, and class

Teaching style
I teach in a unique and totally fun way by having students focus on wonder, discovery, and exploration. My classes exceed state standards, STEM requirements, are are engaging, fun, and totally hands-on.
Awards & shining teacher moments
My online school has won many awards:
Top 100 Site for Homeschoolers by Homeschool.com
Blue Ribbon Award by Old Schoolhouse Magazine
Top 101 pick from Cathy Duffy's Review
...and so many more!
I won all kinds of awards when I was in school for mathematics and science, but I think the best awards I have ever received are the smiles I see on the faces of the students and parents when they get their a-HA! moments.
My own education history
I obtained a Bachelor’s and Master's Degree in Mechanical Engineering at Cal Poly (also in Mathematics and a specialized study in High Temperature Gas Dynamics)
