Because of this, I love to find new ways to motivate my students and get them interested in the material.

...Freedom. I love our Country and am proud to be one of the few that volunteered to serve our people. As a Combat Medic I was in charge of teaching basic life skills to other company's soldiers.

Understanding success as the final product, therefore, is an absurdity.

She praises herself for the tremendous success and...

Throughout high school, I was involved in an organization called The Faraday Society (named in honor of scientist Michael Faraday). We performed awesome chemistry demonstrations for a variety of audiences, from elementary school kids to the general public. While we enjoyed using silly skits to engage with the audience, our primary goal was always to foster enthusiasm toward science. This...
