Speaking to children of all ages comes naturally to me. My parents both love being teachers and have been in the game for over 30 years a piece! I traveled to schools to give presentations on my marine mammal experiences to grades K-8. I currently work for the Education Department at the Saint Louis ZOO where we strive to keep learning a blast! I believe learning sticks when it's fun and stumbled upon! A GOOD teacher can be a gift and set a fire in a child or young adult to take on the world! I love sharing my passion for learning and understanding. I hope it's contagious! I have always had a knack for the sciences and left the Midwest to follow my love of Marine Biology. While in school, I revisted my interest in the arts (painting, piano, and animation). It was then I realized I was passionate about so many topics and didn't want to limit myself to one thing! I've worked wit

Also, I feel that sharing ideas and concepts in an open forum is conducive to healthy learning. In a

I’m passionate about teaching, learning and personal growth. Supporting students as they develop their skills and knowledge of a field of study is incredibly rewarding. I draw educational materials from published sources as well as reputable sources online. I present material that a student can master then build upon their success week after week. If a certain approach isn’t working well, I’ll consider other methods to teaching the content. I work to determine the best media and methods for a given student dealing with certain subject matter. My education and work experience have combined technical and scientific expertise with an understanding of human psychology and the significance of self-expression. I earned a B.S. in Civil and Environmental Engineering from Cornell University. I subsequently earned a Master of Architecture degree from Washington University in St. Louis and have man

As a student at the University of Chicago, I have tutored at the local Ray Elementary school through the Neighborhood Schools program.
