I specialize in STEM subjects, and teaching critical thinking skills that take students beyond simply getting nice report cards

As a teacher, I pride myself in understanding students of wildly differing backgrounds and learning patterns. Consequently, I know how best to help my students not only memorize information, but genuinely learn a subject matter. Two things are most important to me to impart on students. First, that my students learn to think critically, to strengthen their learning ability in school and far beyond. And second, that they never left saying "I hate this class", and asking "when will I ever need to know this?" I believe that all knowledge is useful, and relatable to many aspects of life that will help students succeed in the future.
