I designed a new biology curriculum that aligned with state standards, enhancing student understanding.

I developed inquiry-based labs that boosted science fair participation by 40%.

I Integrated virtual labs and digital simulations (Labster, Praxilabs) to bridge theory with practice, leading to a 30% rise in engagement during remote learning. I used Canvas to build an online resource portal, improving student access to study materials.

I encouraged student-led research and presentations, strengthening comprehension and presentation skills. I use Gamification tools like Kahoot at the end of every lesson to reinforce learning, making lessons interactive and motivating.
