At the end of the day, teaching is about connection. Whether I’m standing in a physical classroom or looking at a grid of faces on a laptop, my goal is exactly the same: to keep students awake, engaged, and genuinely excited about science.
Here is how I bring that to life in both spaces:
In the Physical Classroom: Energy and Real Experience
There is an undeniable energy in a live classroom, and I love taking full advantage of it.
Making Science Tangible: This is where we get to do the real, hands-on work. I want students in the lab mixing solutions to watch a chemical reaction happen live, or out on the campus grounds looking at real biological specimens instead of just staring at drawings in a textbook.
Instant Feedback: Being in the room lets me read the energy. If I'm explaining a tough concept—like a complex chemical pathway—and I see blank stares or furrowed brows, I can pause immediately. I can grab a piece of chalk, change my approach, or walk over to a student's desk to sketch it out until the lightbulb goes on.
In the Online Classroom: Staying Connected Through the Screen
Online learning can easily feel cold and distant if you let it, so I work twice as hard to keep it interactive.
Bringing the Lab to the Screen: Just because we are online doesn't mean we stop exploring. I use interactive simulations, animations, and clear digital visuals to break down molecular structures or biological processes, making the microscopic world feel visible and real.
Keeping Everyone Awake and Involved: I don't just lecture at a screen while everyone sits on mute. I keep things moving by throwing out quick questions in the chat, using live polls, and splitting students into small digital breakout groups so they can talk through a problem together. It keeps them active and stops them from drifting off.
The Bottom Line: Tools and settings change, but great teaching doesn't. Whether I’m handing a student a test tube or dropping a link into a chat box, I’m focused on making sure they feel supported, involved, and capable of mastering the material.
