Experience
I work as a teacher on the West Coast and have 6 plus years experience being employed in many different schools. After obtaining my master's in Education, I also obtained a certificate for Middle School Mathematics Education. For a couple years I taught in Thailand and was able to teach many different subjects including math and science for kids in grades five through ten. The school I worked at was private and an international establishment. Most recently, I worked at a middle school and assisted students in math, and for grade seven I taught science. My type of work environment is to have students feeling that they will be challenged, but also understanding and more importantly them knowing they can always ask questions. Every student has a different personality, learning curve, and methods for how they approach math and science. I embrace this and very much strive to take this into account when teaching each pupil in my classes. I am educated in Common Core subject standards and "backward planning," which I often utilize in my classes. What matters to me is to make sure my students' needs are met and that they are able to better understand the course material, therefore, they will be able to take these educational tools with them throughout life.
