Profile
Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree in Science from University of Alabama
Bachelor's Degree in Science from University of South Carolina
I am a middle school and high school math and science teacher with nine years of experience.  Additionally, I am a homeschooling dad of 14+years who has four kids that are four different types of learners.    

I have the privilege to teach many subject areas, but chemistry is my favorite as it applies to all other areas of science.  My opinion is that if a student understands major chemical concepts, other sciences become more clear.  

I hold a MS and BS in the natural sciences.
