Chemistry, Physical Sciences Survey, Environmental Science

"Teaching students, rather than courses," is a statement I subscribe to in practicing my craft at the Center for American Education, where I typically teach courses in Environmental Science and Intro. to Chemistry. The students as unique individuals have made this profession meaningful and exciting, from semester to semester.  

My training is two-pronged: pure science and science education. In the sciences, I conducted researches on soft corals and medicinal plants (microbial and phytochemical screening). In science education, I pursued studies about the  teaching-learning tandem with emphasis on cognitive development.
