Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Teacher Nicole's first career was as a field geologist/field geochemist. She spent time atop Kiluea Iki on the big island of Hawaii, studying gas pressure inside the volcano, followed by time at the Hanford Nuclear Waste Superfund Site in the groundwater sector. Once it was "time to settle down" Nicole earned a Masters in Education, making her the ultimate blend of real, lived field experience and educational best practices, for an unmatched learning experience for your student!
