Experience
I would like to think that I lead a pretty interesting and unique life. I have had plenty of job experience. I've worked as a high school physics teacher, childcare professional, and engineer. I recently just finished up two years of fun traveling. I began my two year journey by taking a motorcycle camping trip around the U.S. and ended the excursion with an exciting climb of Kilimanjaro and a safari in Tanzania. Teaching has always been one of my main passions. I have taught high school physics, ranging from AP courses to freshman courses. I also have graded many AP exams for the college board. I like to consider myself an AP physics aficionado. Considering physics and math go hand in hand, I also believe I am quite great at mathematics. While teaching and tutoring, I came up with several fun and creative ways to assist students who are having troubles understanding hard material. I enjoy having engaging conversation with my students. I also enjoy using visual aids. I am a firm believer in fun education. Dull and boring does not seem to go over well with students, and they tend to lose interest quickly. I am also a firm believer that everyone and anyone can learn material, if only they have the motivation to do so.
