I am glad that you are here to read about my upcoming class. I am passionate about Biology and it shows in my enthusiasm during class time. I want to impart my enthusiasm with each and every learner. Biology is about anatomy, physiology, nutrition, and public health. Biology also encompasses microbiology. But most importantly, Biology is about life. I am also curious to find out what aspect of Biology is of most interest to the student. Do you think your student will enjoy learning about genetics, the anatomy of the spine, cell biology, smallpox, polio, tuberculosis, histology, the coronavirus, bacteria, or nutrition and health the most? All those topics and more are covered within this ongoing class. As a teacher, I do incorporate the usage of Latin roots during or course of study of Biology. I do take time to engage with each student to learn the student’s individual personality. In my opinion, information is better retained in a relaxed and fun atmosphere. So, I strive to have a lively class. This class will meet twice per week. Each class session can expect a dynamic PowerPoint presentation along with my conversational tone. The following list is the tentative schedule for this ongoing class: June-12 The Cell Theory June 14 We will learn about Prokaryotic cells June 19 Eukaryotic cells and organelles June 21 Fungi June 26 We will discuss the penicillin discovery June 28 We will learn all about Bacteria through an interactive PowerPoint presentation. July 3 We will examine the ABO blood typing system via PowerPoint. July 5 We will learn about the Rh factor July 10 There will prediction of varying blood type/ Deductive and analytical reasoning skills will be used to determine parental blood types in family pedigree presented on the white board by the instruction July 12 Bacterial morphology July 17 Types of bacterial illnesses July 19 DNA structure and Function. July 24 We will discuss the genetic disorders of Sickle Cell Disease, Cystic Fibrosis, July26 Tay-Sachs and Marfan Syndrome and their hereditary characteristics and typical symptoms. July 31 During this class, we will learn how to read food labels as a group. August 2 Nutrition including Water Soluble and Fat Soluble vitamins. August 7 Diseases associated with a lack of nutrition will be presented in PowerPoint. August 9th In this class we will discuss, macronutrients an the roles of oils, protein, carbohydrates, and fats in our diet. August 14th In this class we will discuss, GMOs, organic food, and gluten-free products. August 16th In this class, we will discuss the genotypes of Mendelian genetics will be covered. August 21st In this class, the predictions will be made by the students of the probability genotypic and phenotypic outcomes. August 23rd We will learn the anatomy and features of cardiac tissue, bone tissue, red blood cells, white blood cells, and fat cells by viewing Microanatomy slides. August 28th We will learn about Public Health and Smallpox August 30th We will learn about Polio and Tuberculosis. September 4th We will examine the anatomy of the spine September 6th Cardiac Anatomy All above subject matter will be covered however the schedule may change slightly due to classroom dynamics.

Licenciatura en Ciencia desde Xavier University of Louisiana
I’m a native of New Orleans. I am also a joyful homeschool mother of one and a passionate teacher of Biology, Chemistry, and Nutrition. I not only delight in teaching these subjects well but also enjoy creating a fun and stimulating environment in which to learn. Although I teach the hard sciences, I focus on making those academic classes amusing with engaging activities and by adding my sense of humor to the mix.
I enjoy debate, reading, writing well, cooking, and swimming in my spare time. I was a local Scripps-Howard spelling bee champion. I have also won numerous writing awards. I am proud to be on the board of the Catholic Homeschoolers for the Archdiocese of Galveston/Houston.
I have a degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry from Xavier University of Louisiana. I have a Master’s degree in Public Health from Tulane School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine with a concentration in Nutrition. I have work experience in laboratory research, medical sales, and medical/editing writing. I completed coursework in Gross Anatomy, Histology, Biochemistry, Statistics, Cardiology, Pulmonology, and Pharmacology at Case Western Reserve School of Medicine in Cleveland, OH. I was formerly employed by Johnson & Johnson and GlaxoSmithkline. I tutor high school biology and I have experience with AP Biology and the Biology CLEP (College Level Examination Program) exam. I like catering to each child’s interests and responding to each question. I am also an ACE Educator.
I do have a loyal following of students and I would like to share the Outschool reviews that has been written about my classes.
Here are a few:
1)This was my daughter's third class with Mrs. Brandy and it certainly won't be her last. She learned a lot about chemistry, including high school terms, in an easy to understand way and had fun while doing so. She enjoyed the camaraderie with the other students, the hands on experiments and the Kahoot. Mrs. Brandy is knowledgeable about her subjects and shares her information in a fun and engaging manner. We highly recommend Mrs. Brandy's classes.-Chemisty for Middle School
2)Mrs. Brandy is fantastic. My daughter was excited to join the classes each week, and was excited to tell me things she learned in class. I will have her take other Mrs. Brandy classes. I am a university professor, and was able to overhear some of the classes, and was really impressed - Mrs. Brandy is a real, professional teacher - a lot of respect for her teaching method and curriculum. I admired her creativity of using candy to illustrate the spine. Thank you Mrs. Brandy! - Biology for Middle School
3)You know it's a good class when your kid comes out of it feeling like an area that they previously thought was too technical and tricky would actually be a possible career choice! Excellent teaching here in the truest sense of the word. -Histology/Microanatomy
