About the store

Experience

I have been a science teacher for 5 years. I have taught many grade levels from high school biology to 7th grade science and have loved every minute of it. I currently teach middle school science at a phenomenal dual language immersion school in beautiful San Diego, California.

Teaching style

I would consider myself a constructivist/delegator. I like to place teaching and learning in the hands of students.

Awards & shining teacher moments

✔ Harvard Graduate School of Education Project Zero 2019 ✔ Harvard Graduate School of Education Instructional Rounds 2018

My own education history

I have a B.A. in Marine Science from the University of San Diego as well as my M.Ed from the same university. I and am currently working on my Master's in Education Administration.

Additional biographical information

In addition to teaching 7th grade science classes I also have a Facebook that I maintain https://www.facebook.com/ThinkinglikeScientists is where I blog my reflections and ideas. If you're looking to engage your class like never before or share cool things you've done in your classroom, then you should definitely check out my facebook.
