In my teaching, my current focus is on general chemistry (at the high school or college level) and organic chemistry, both of which were always personal favorites. Even more importantly, in my pursuit of the...

I am able to help students with many subjects but I feel best when teaching life sciences (obviously), as well as history and Latin.

Just because I am not a student anymore, however, does not mean I can't still dedicate myself to learning.

...reading level were aimed at students much younger. In order to keep him engaged, I had to get creative. We would practice reading comprehension using the sports section of the newspaper, and did short creative writing exercises.

...approach history from a so-called "bottom-up" or microhistorical approach, which I've found in teaching Roman Republican history can be very useful for students in understanding how a society functioned, which is crucial for their understanding of causality of events.
