The Chemistry of Rocks, Minerals, Gemstones, and Crystals (Flex)
Class experience
Beginner - Advanced Level
In this class, we will discuss some common crystal structures, how minerals and gemstones are classified based on their properties, as well as look at the chemical composition of a variety of minerals and gemstones. This class is perfect for learners who love rocks and minerals and want to learn more! Structure of Class: Each week I will post the material for that week's lesson.

I am a certified chemistry teacher (grades 7-12) with almost two decades of teaching experience. I have 7 years of experience in the high school classroom and four years of experience teaching online through Outschool. I have also done private tutoring at the high school and college level, taught freshman college chemistry recitations and labs, and worked in various science outreach settings including museums, middle school after school science programs, and science summer camps. From these experiences, I have worked with a lot of different types of learners at various stages of interest, ability, and motivation- from preschoolers wide-eyed at everything in science to high school students simply taking the class as a requirement to college freshmen chemistry majors passionate about the course with never-ending questions. I can tailor my teaching style to fit the learner, and I do what I can to make it approachable by anyone.
