I am an experienced educator with over 21 years of experience. I have a Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Education degree and am certified to teach in both Ontario and British Columbia. My passion is teaching science, and I have a strong knowledge of the elementary science curriculum. I have worked with students of all ages from JK-Grade 6. For the past 14 years I have been a full time Science Specialist Teacher, and have also contributed to Science Curriculum writing teams. Early in my career I was a programming specialist developing camps, clubs and school programs at the local science centre, aquarium and even a 'bug' zoo! I believe in making learning fun and enjoyable and nurturing our innate curiosity! I enjoy working with students and meeting them where they are at, and differentiating my teaching to suit their learning styles. I have some online tutoring experience, and have worked with students on subjects such as math and literacy as well.
