Use code to save $20 on this class! https://outschool.com/teachers/Tommy-Rose?signup=true&usid=dhHJVcJ1 In this 5-day camp, learners will build and rebuild the skills needed for success with general biology. Whether the learner has completed biology already and needs some review or is is enrolled in biology next fall, this camp is designed to build skills, confidence, and mastery. I help each learner gain some tips, tricks, and easy to remember methods! The class will be full of discussion and dynamic teaching. Learners are encouraged to bring questions and points of confusion. We will work as a class to bring understanding to each concept. Two hands-on activities/labs are planned. Here is a brief schedule of each day. Day 1: Cells Day 2: Viruses & Bacteria (Hands On Activity) Day 3: Chemistry of Life (Hands on Activity) Day 4: Plants Day 5: Animals and Human Function & Structure. Learners have the option to use the material list if they wish to complete the experiments with me. Learners will be able to interact and collaborate ideas with classmates during the class. Each will be encouraged to fully participate in each day's experiment.

Teacher expertise and credentials

Master's Degree in Science from University of Alabama

I am a middle school and high school math and science teacher with 10+ years of experience. Additionally, I am a homeschooling dad of 15+ years who has four kids that are four different types of learners.
I have the privilege to teach many subject areas, but biology & chemistry are my favorite as they applies to all other areas of science. My opinion is that if a student understands the these major concepts, other sciences become more clear.
I hold a MS and BS degrees in the natural sciences.
