Summary

Uniquely creative and extremely hands-on Middle School Science Teacher with 23 years of experience. Talented at involving and motivating students of all ability levels. Effectively relates to students of diverse cultural backgrounds and tailors teaching methods to suit their individual needs.

I also have two years of virtual teaching experience in the area of middle grades Physical science, where I continued to have an extremely engaging, hands-on, and upbeat learning environment in which I was still able to differentiate the lessons for all students.
