Teaching is my life. All of the activities I have engaged in have had teaching at their core. Whether teaching in a formal setting, teaching students in my lab, or talking to the public about the environment and coral reefs, my life is centered around teaching. But I have learned too. I have learned how to effectively communicate and how to engage in delivering material they will remember and connect to their lives.
