As a father to an active 9 year old, I know that learning must be fun. The early years of a child’s education is critical not only for their future success but also their enjoyment of learning. I want to start kids off right on this journey. I have a Bachelor‘s degree from Geneva College with over a decade experience teaching children and teens. I have years of experience leading a classroom in both public schools in Ohio as well as online. I previously held credentials through the State of Ohio Department of Education (now expired). I taught in public schools for 2 school years where science lessons was part of my duties as an educator. I have over 7 years of experience teaching children on online platforms and have taught thousands of kids to love science. I pride myself on never letting kids get bored yet always be learning.  I have a passion for helping children succeed.
