I am a middle school and high school math and science teacher with 12 years of experience. Additionally, I am a homeschooling dad of 16 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.
