TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have been teaching since I was 9. In that time I have taught tens of thousands of students from Pre-K to University. I have worked as a professional mad scientist. I have been employed in a planetarium, at an aquarium, as a tutor, and I spent a decade in the mountains teaching at scout camps throughout the Mountain West. I taught general science, biology, earth science, math, and physics in a middle school charter school. I am currently teaching chemistry and biology in a traditional high school.

MY TEACHING STYLE

Fun.
