What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative school to teach chemistry and physics, develop inclusive multicultural curricula, use flipped-classroom methods, and advance student critical thinking and achievement.

I have more than 7 years of experience teaching mathematics, biology, physics, and chemistry to undergraduate and high school students in the US, excelling in lecturing, test/exam administration and proctoring, and creative lesson plan development. I hold a Master's degree in the Art of Teaching (Brandman University, 2021) and have passed CSET Physics, CSET Science, CSET Chemistry, and CSET Biology along with preliminary credentials for physics, chemistry, and biology.

I create comprehensive lesson plans, use flipped-classroom strategies, and developed programs for students who needed additional support while fostering critical thinking and a positive classroom environment. I bring strong classroom management, assessment design, and multicultural curriculum experience, and I consistently collaborate with colleagues to integrate new activities and allocate resources effectively.
