I have been a teacher for more than ten years now. But before becoming a teacher I used to be a Chemical Engineer; consequently, applying science concepts to real world situations is my specialty. I also love to cook and I experiment a lot in my kitchen. Students, in this class will discover how a kitchen can be transformed into a science lab at home.
