Biology Teacher
I teach biology to high school students.
Depending on the class, I’m with my students in the lab two to three times a week. I design my own lab experiments to make them engaging and real-world applicable. These labs include dissections and criminology experiments. My days are fun and exciting but biology is state-tested in Texas, so I work hard to make sure my students are prepared to pass their state exams as well.
Here's the first step for professionals
If you're looking to further yourself or make a career change, I highly recommend a program like WGU. As a working professional, you have real-world experience and education that you can leverage to test out of courses and reach achievements quickly. The program was paramount in my journey to becoming a teacher.
