Got time? Here is the full description:

Hello friends! I teach STEM with a sprinkle of art and tons of fun, along with engaging Mandarin Chinese courses.

📚 I hold a Bachelor's degree in Marketing from Walsh College and previously worked as a web analyst for one of the nation's largest ad agencies. Additionally, I possess a certificate in Learning, Knowledge, and Human Development from the University of Illinois and a Classroom Strategies for Inquiry-Based Learning certificate from UTAustinX. I have collaborated with nonprofit STEM education organizations to develop top-notch classroom experiences. Besides Outschool, I teach part-time at a private school, bringing my passion for innovative and engaging education to in-person learning environments. During my free time, I dedicate myself to learning about how children learn, ensuring that my teaching methods are always up-to-date and effective.

🔬 STEM education can and should be enjoyable. Through special curriculums I have developed over the years working with children, my goal as an educator is to ignite a love for scientific inquiry and discovery in young minds. My passion for childhood development and human psychology drives me to create enriching and interactive learning experiences. I have extensive experience working with learners of all ages to improve their STEM skills. My focus is on helping children build a solid foundation in science and technology through arts and play, making learning both fun and effective.

🈵 In addition to my STEM courses, I offer self-paced and live Mandarin Chinese classes designed to develop fundamental communication skills. My Mandarin courses incorporate the same engaging, inquiry-based learning methods that I use in my STEM classes. With video lessons, digital flashcards, quiz games, and guided reviews, I make learning Mandarin fun and interactive. By integrating STEM-inspired techniques, I ensure that students not only master the language but also develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills.

When I'm not teaching on Outschool, you can find me homeschooling my child, tinkering with projects, teaching other students, or participating in teacher training.

🐶 Fun facts about me: I have a beagle, and she loves to be in class with me. Maybe you will get to meet her.
