High school biology teacher who turns complex science into engaging, student-supported learning.
What I'm looking for
I’m a high school academic biology teacher with experience teaching four classes and supporting students through tutoring. I work closely with a team of teachers while using tools like Microsoft, Canva, Google, and Blackboard to enhance learning.
Before teaching, I supported students as a chemistry teaching assistant—helping with proper lab procedures and concepts, creating assignments, proctoring quizzes and exams, and providing tutoring. I also worked as a chemistry stockroom assistant, handling lab equipment upkeep, stockroom organization, inventory, and lab cleanup.
My earlier experience includes customer-facing and fast-paced work as a copy & print associate, managing print orders, quality checks, and shipments with USPS and FedEx. I’ve also volunteered in concessions in a high-energy environment and worked on organizing donated documents and photos as a student worker.
