Research and Teaching Interests

I thoroughly enjoy teaching science, specifically biology courses and concepts. In the years I have taught, I have had the privilege to educate many students from different backgrounds. Each semester of teaching has positively affected my adeptness to mold my teaching to convey the material in diverse ways depending on the specific student need. I learn the best through experience, and the lessons I have already learned from students boost my ability and desire to teach. There are certainly going to be more obstacles ahead and therefore, more opportunities for my teaching ability to mature.
