I have the privilege of teaching Biology, Physical Science, and Anatomy and Physiology to both gifted and regular students. Everyday is a new day both rewarding and challenging. Not only do I challenge the students, they challenge me and their peers. I am fortunate enough to have smaller classes which helps the students get the individualized attention they need to be successful. With having smaller classes we can do more hands on learning. However,with limited funding it is hard to find intriguing labs that are budget friendly. I thank you for looking at my wanted list and seeing the needs of my students!
