Michael
retired research chemist and current chemistry instructor at NEIU
I have the maturity and common sense that derives from more than thirty five years as a research chemist. My enthusiasm for chemistry (and science in general) stems from the excellent teachers that I had in grade and high school. My goal is to emulate them and hopefully instill the same passion for science in my students. My teaching style is not dictatorial. I am an advocate of the trust but verify approach. If you tell me you understand, I will ask you follow up question(s) to insure tha... Read more
Amanda
High school math teacher with a great amount of experience
I have been teaching high school math for many years. It's funny because when I was in high school, I was never in love with math. I was always good at it but never thought it would become my career. I started really liking it in college and learned to love it as I made it my major. I graduated college in 2011 with a bachelors degree in mathematics and an Illinois state teaching certificate. When I graduated college, I got a job with a private school for some time, then taught at a suburban ... Read more

I have a masters degrees in both chemistry and chemical engineering. In my chemistry education I took extensive coursework in both organic and inorganic chemistry, and I was a teaching assistant in general as well as inorganic chemistry. When teaching the undergrads under my supervision I liked to emphasize fundamentals and first principles, and I tried to give them a sort of chemical intuition, where they could look at a problem and understand how to do it, and they could look at answers a...
