Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello Outschool families! My name is Anthony Easton. I’m an experienced K-12 educator. I specialize in health and wellness education, mathematics education, and logic/puzzles--especially escape rooms. I am a proud Pokemon and Star Wars fan, and I design my lessons around popular topics to get students engaged with learning.
Originally from the Los Angeles suburbs, I moved to Indiana for graduate school at the Indiana University School of Public Health and have made the Midwest home! I completed my Master of Public Health degree in 2018. I also hold a K-12 Physical Education and a 5-12 Health Education charter teaching license in the State of Indiana and a BA in Physical Education from Azusa Pacific University in Azusa, California.
A little bit about my background & expertise:
I have a year of full-time teaching (physical education and reading) experience at a K-2 charter school in urban Indianapolis, a year of full-time substitute teaching experience in public high schools in suburban Los Angeles, and two years experience of teaching public health to over 2,000 freshmen and sophomores at Indiana University.
I have also completed multiple part time or internship roles with K-12 students. To highlight just a few: a two-year-long internship working with middle school students on health and wellness in rural Indiana, a year-long internship teaching nutrition and fitness to 4th graders in suburban Indiana, and two summers experience as a middle grades camp counselor (focused on health and wellness) in San Diego.
Additionally, I managed a K-8 math tutoring business from 2010 until 2015, working with dozens of California students on mathematics and logic.
I was raised by two career educators in the California public school system. Innovative, engaging teaching runs in my blood! Please send me a note if you have any questions! I’m always open to designing new courses or catering my existing courses to different age groups.
