...few years. I have experience working with children with disabilities, so I know how to tailor lessons for each individual student. Student centered learning is best. If a student has a hard time learning material, the teacher must change how he/she teaches. It is also important to get to know the person with whom you work, as well. I am a very caring person and truly work hard to make sure that each person I...

...and physics (general physics I and II, modern physics, astrophysics), with the subjects I enjoy teaching most being astro-related. The ability to introduce students to the awe of the cosmos and its mechanisms is one of the most valuable fruits I have obtained from this hat.
