A general overview of what I am about.

An intrinsic desire for helping students enjoy physics is what makes me anxious to become a teacher. I pride myself on presenting the straightforward truth. I despise routine, and I will never plan for a leisure activity, or it is not longer leisure. I enjoy getting my hands dirty whether it is working with wood in the family business, splitting wood, or digging a ditch. I love lacrosse because it is the only time a person can hit another person with a titanium pole and not get in trouble. I believe in never taking the easy way because that would be too easy. I call "soda" pop, Buffalo wings-wings, and put the word "the" before the number of an interstate. To me the Buffalo Sabres are champions because the foot was in the crease, and the Buffalo Bills are still re-building.

My professional experience includes:

I attended Ithaca College as an undergraduate physics student and received my degree in Physics. I then went overseas to teach children in China. I received a grant from the National Sceince Foundation to work on a top secret project from NASA. I own my own lacrosse company, and coach the football and lacrosse team.

Here at the school, I teach physics intro, AP Physics, and computer science. I also serve as a math tutor. I have an extensive calculus background, and I am well versed in Modern Physics, Electromagnetism, Math Methods, Optics and Thermodynamics.

This is an example of a website students will be able to create after taking AP Computer Science.
