I love teaching math and science. I enjoy them because they help students make sense of the world in concrete and logical ways. Math builds problem-solving skills and confidence as students learn to break challenges into manageable steps. Science sparks curiosity and lets students explore how things work through hands-on investigation. I love watching students have those “aha!” moments when a concept suddenly clicks, whether it’s discovering a new pattern in math or seeing a scientific principle come to life during an experiment. Both subjects give students opportunities to think critically, ask questions, and connect learning to real life.
My favorite teaching tip for online learning is to create a simple routine and stick to it. A predictable schedule helps students stay organized and reduces stress for both kids and parents. It doesn’t have to be complicated—just consistent. Set aside a designated learning space, check the daily agenda together, and build in short breaks to keep energy and focus up. When students know what to expect, they’re more engaged, and parents feel more confident supporting them.
