About

My favorite subjects are the life sciences like biology and chemistry. I have been teaching in the classroom setting at since 2011 and in our home school since 2001. I have a degree in Biology, a degree in Health Sciences, and a doctorate but my heart has always been in teaching. My specialty is breaking down science into understandable blocks with a multi-sensory hands-on approach that is well suited for all learning styles, including dyslexics.

If I can spark the love of science in one child every year, I feel like I've made a difference!

    Emis has been a wonderful science teacher for a couple of my children. She is highly knowledgeable in multiple science subjects. She is kind and patient with the students and she is able to teach concepts in multiple ways until the student understands the ideas. I highly recommend her!

    Mrs. Koopman is amazing! She is extremely knowledgeable and is able to present the most difficult subject manner in an engaging and understandable way. She is a super fun teacher. After attending Mrs. Koopmans class, my daughter has chosen to pursue a degree in the medical field. She is in her second year of college and is doing very well in her science classes.

    Very organized and prepared for each lesson. Engages with the students and helps them to understand the topic. It is obvious she truly loves science and enthusiastically shares her knowledge with others. I am grateful to have her teach my boys high school science.

    Frequently asked questions

    I try to assess each child's strengths and weaknesses and focus on teaching to the strenghts.  Not everyone learns from reading a textbook so it helps to figure out their interests and which formats work best for each child.

    I started home schooling in 2001.  In 2011, we joined a home school support group (co-op) and I started teaching in the classroom setting.  I would alternate teaching biology, chemistry and physics yearly with one-on-one tutoring as needed. 

    My favorite thing as a teacher is unlocking the creativity and intellect of kids, especially the often misunderstood dyslexic child.

    Lots of people can teach science.  How many people get excited by it?  I've had parents thank me because my enthusiasm for the subjects couldn't help but rub off on the kids. 

    Is it just a few areas or the whole subject that you need help in?  Do you have a preferred learning style?
