About Me

Experience Summary

I am a certified science teacher and have taught undergraduate Microbiology for 5 years both labs and lectures. I have been a substitute teacher in Middle Schools for 3 years. I have a Masters in Microbiology and a Bachelors in Microbiology and Biochemistry. My teaching experience and education have given me a good understanding of the concepts in Genetics, Evolution, Ecology, Molecular Biology, Animal and Plant Biology. I have experience is planning lessons and assessing student's understanding of concepts. Having studied several AP biology and SAT Biology exam papers, I have an excellent understanding of the format and style of questions.

Teaching Style

Being a facilitator, encouraging students to achieve their full potential by patiently and systematically explaining the concepts, processes, labs and problems and checking for understanding by reviewing in different ways. It is important to trigger student interest by relating it to their background information and to real life applications.

My Hobbies
