什麼是 IB 文憑課程？基本介紹及問答平台

Hello! I teach assorted Social Studies, Spanish, and French classes. I also teach informational classes about Advanced Placement (AP) classes and the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma Program. I will cycle back through popular classes, but for the most part, I will keep the classes I teach fresh and diverse for both myself and my students. 

I have a Bachelor of Arts in History a Minor in Spanish. I have a Master of Arts in Teaching with an Oregon Teaching License for Social Studies and Spanish for teaching K-12 students. I have taught the following courses over the last five years and I am currently still teaching IB History and AP World History: AP US History, 8th grade US History, Histoire du Maroc (History of Morocco in French), Government & Politics, Contemporary Issues, Estudios Sociales (Social Studies in Spanish), and Economics. I am also currently the IB Diploma Program Coordinator at my school and will occasional offer classes about the IB.

Educational theories help provide a foundation to my beliefs about teaching. Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences, and Bloom’s Taxonomy are all theories I value. These, combined with my innate desire to teach and help others, will contribute to my awareness of the needs of my students. Through differentiated instruction and assessment, I will spur on all students to higher thinking.

I taught outside of the USA for 5 years, spending two years in Guatemala and three years in Morocco. Teaching at international schools overseas has formed me into the globally minded teacher I am today.

I love my wife and am so thankful for her. We enjoy hiking, swimming, traveling, and reading together.
