Field Notes

Science should feel like discovery, not memorization.

Fourteen years turning the periodic table, dissections, and lab reports into the moment a student finally says "oh — I get it now." I've taught high school Chemistry and Biology with a hands-on lab-first philosophy — students learn the reaction, then they learn why it happened. My classroom runs on curiosity: real experiments, real data, and real mistakes, because that's how science actually works outside a textbook.
