Inspired by Nelson Mandela's claim that the impossible is just waiting to be done, this blog chronicles my own journey to do the impossible. I am embarking on another new career as a high school math and science teacher . . . and I don't really think it's impossible - just really hard these days to land a job.
I finally became a credentialed "single-subject" teacher of math, science, physics, chemistry and biology in 2011--but finding the job to use my skills to help motivate students to enjoying my favorite subjects was difficult. I ended up at a different school each year.
So I am now retired, but still working with some kids and books.
I have a number of books about teaching, math and science (and other books of interest) in my Amazon Seller Account. There might be something there that you could pick up at a reasonable price.
