I teach Anatomy and Physiology Honors as well as Biology Honors in County Schools. I graduated from University of South Florida with a Bachelor’s of Science in Secondary Science Education. My coursework included upper level Biology/Math courses such as Cell Biology, Genetics, and Calculus as well as education classes where I studied topics like educational philosophy. Additionally as an undergraduate I had the opportunity to work as a tutor in several high-need Middle and High schools in the County. As an educator, I truly believe that all students can be successful in science. Furthermore, I strive to instill an appreciation for both science and learning by creating tasks that challenge students' thinking while providing appropriate support for each student.

The experience I have gained while studying Education and Psychology, along with administrating exams for Wonderlic Scholoastic Testing and tutoring has enabled me to learn through understanding, hard work and dedication. I have learned through extensive courses in Psychology on how we learn, education courses that break learning down, and working with children and adolescence for over ten years with tutoring and patience, that with the proper tools and guidance, anything can be achieved. I believe that implementing the right tools, along with clearly stating what the student needs to learn, along with discussion, will ensure student success.Using multisensory resources, creatively using the newly formed knowledge, along with pre-testing will foster memory and recall.

I have always used student-oriented teaching methods. For example I usually give the students real -life scenarios such as case studies to reinforce the concepts they learn. I also give the students worksheets and practice material. I have always received good feed back from students regarding my enthusiasm and knowledge of the subject. I have taught an array of Biology courses at College level for over 10 years. During my time as a Graduate student at Louisiana State University, I have taught college freshman and have tutored high school students. After receiving my PhD, I taught Biology at Rogers State University. I am very comfortable teaching a wide array of Biology courses. Currently employed a University of Tampa as an assistant professor of Biology.

I have a Masters from Duke University in Coastal Environmental Management, and specialize in marine mammal biology; however, I am very knowledgeable in all aspects of Marine Biology I have recently completed my Masters degree from Duke University this past May and am currently working as a dolphin biologist. While my focus is on marine mammals, my masters program trained me in how to become an environmental manager. With this, I am extremely adept at public speaking, professional writing, and communication skills. I am very knowledgeable in a variety of subjects spanning across economics, marine ecology, geospatial analysis, and marine policy. I am very adept in composing resumes and have numerous experiences preparing for and being accepted for positions I have applied and interviewed for. I truly believe in experiential learning as much as possible! However, sometimes this isn't always

To work in the field of marine biology was my goal when in college. I traveled to Paris and enrolled at the Sorbonne University in order to prepare myself and had the intention of applying to work with Yves Jacques Cousteau. However, my studies were curtailed due to the Sorbonne's staff and students going on strike for over 4 months. I have qualified twice in SCUBA. In my teaching, I make every effort to engage the attention of my students. While covering the subject at hand, I bring into my lessons references to a spectrum of other subjects when relevant such as historical context, cultural elements, literary allusions, modern and historical implications and facts and trivia relating to the subject which I believe will not only be of interest to the student but will also provide a more rounded appreciation of the benefits of a wide ranging education.
