It's my passion to create unique, engaging learning experiences.  I strive to create learner-centered, integrated lessons that relate content to students’ lives.  I believe that my educational background in the field of marine science, professional teaching degree and extensive experiencing developing/delivering educational programs for all ages, will generate a class experience that fosters learners' appreciation for our oceans and environment.

Learners will be provided with a short optional assignment.

Learner achievement will be assessed with formative methods within the classroom setting.  Students will have the option to self assess with a short survey posted to the classroom.
