Prior exposure and study of biology and/or chemistry at the basic level is recommended.   #academic

Each stand-alone session will discuss a different and interesting topic of biology allowing for learners to choose one or all classes.

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 science teacher with 10+ 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 biology & chemistry are my favorites as each apply to all other areas of science.  My opinion is that if a student understands major concepts, other sciences become more clear.  

I hold a MS and BS in the natural sciences.
