Welcome to my high school biology class! In this ongoing high school biology course, we will cover basic topics of life science that are typically covered in first part of high school biology curriculum,...
- The learning goal of the high school biology curriculum is to prepare students with a foundational understanding of biological principles, enabling them to explore the diversity of life, its processes, and the interconnections within living systems, including molecular biology concepts. Hence, this course is designed to give students a detailed understanding of the concepts that lead to success in other advanced courses, such as AP Biology and AP Environmental Science.
I have received a bachelor's degree in microbiology (2014) and a PhD degree in molecular immunology (2021). I also worked at Yale University as a postdoctoral associate for a year (2022). I have also served as a teaching assistant and lecturer in introductory biology and advanced biochemistry lecture. I have also tutored high school and AP biology for 10 years.
