TEACHING EXPERIENCE

I have been teaching for 6+ years in a large urban school district. I have taught a variety of levels, gifted, special education, ELL, etc. I mostly teach Environmental Science to 7-12th graders. I also teach AP Environmental.

MY TEACHING STYLE

I tend to compile resources from many sources and modify and adapt to fit my classroom. I love for students to work through and discover things, I try to act as a facilitator in my classroom.

ADDITIONAL BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION

I love to travel, and try to integrate it into my classroom. I am hoping to create products that will formally integrate travel experiences into science concepts I already teach.
