Experience Summary
I have five years teaching geography at the community college level. I mostly taught physical geography (more like earth science), but also taught some human geography as well. I have had multiple short term experiences in the field that I believe make my teaching of geography, biology, and earth science more real and not abstract. As a teacher I always used technology and field trips whenever possible.
Teaching Style
I like to bring the material "down to earth" by using examples and making comparisons between the material being taught and what the student is familiar with in the own immediate world. When teaching geography and earth science I use many examples of places with the students home region. Southern California is great for that!
My Hobbies
Hiking, bird/wildlife watching, traveling/road trips.

| Earth Science |
 This is one of my top subjects!
Proficiency: Expert
|
| I taught physical geography for five years. Basically identical to earth science with a bit stronger emphasis on maps. I can help you with all your geology, soils, weather/climate, biomes, etc. needs. |
