My NSTA / Peers / Tracy Williams

I'm a high school science teacher, working for 12 years at Jordan HS, Long Beach, CA after 8 years of work with informal education at 2 local aquariums. I'm currently National Board certified and have recently complete my masters degree in science education. My focus in teaching is to transition more of my laboratories and lessons to inquiry based learning.
