This session is designed for those learners who want to dive deeper into special topics in wildlife biology or the field of wildlife biology careers. In this one-on-one format, I want the learner to have the opportunity to ask questions, learn from my experiences and knowledge and come away feeling like they are supported in their interests. This can be a one-time tutoring/mentoring session or we can agree to follow special topics further, if the student so desires. It is my intention to provide encouragement and a realistic sense of what different types of biology careers entail...even when that means being covered in mud! Some examples of topics for Individual Tutoring are: Animal groups, adaptations, characteristics and behaviors Endangered species issues and success stories Field research (tropical rainforest animals, primate research, birds, insects, wolves and more) Wildlife conservation issues and solutions around the world Careers working with wildlife Backyard explorations

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Hello everyone. I'm sincerely looking forward to meeting you and expanding your horizons into the wonderful world of nature, with my solar-powered classes (yes, all my electricity is solar)!
I started out as a wildlife biologist (Bachelor's degree) then evolved into a conservation educator (Master's degree), author, and artist. I have worked in the rain forests of Panama, the swamps of Florida and the mountains of Idaho. I have numerous published articles on environmental issues and also conceived the award-winning book, “Art of the National Parks”. I have taught science (and art) indoors and outdoors, as well as written curriculum for all ages for organizations such as World Wildlife Fund and the Smithsonian National Zoo. I lead organized group nature trips to Panama, Africa, Spain, California and New Mexico and love teaching people about exotic animals, plants, and places.
When I worked in the environmental education departments of different organizations, we created innovative ways for students to learn concepts through fun experiences, such as games, teamwork, creative thinking, and the magic of inspiration. This is what I bring to the online classroom. Of course, it's also fun to share my personal hands-on experiences in the wild places I have lived and visited. That personal touch is engaging to students and can ignite a lifelong interest in the outdoors.
I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico, my adopted state and truly the "Land of Enchantment". Here, I like to spend time hiking, mountain biking, painting, watching birds and watching the light change on the mountain.
