Paul Martenis

High School Teacher
Belmont High School

 

B.S. -- Astronomy and Physics; Haverford College
M.A. -- Teaching and Curriculum; Harvard University
High School Teacher, teaching four high school science courses, including physics courses and an integrated science course.
"The challenge for me is to motivate students to do as well as they can. I have learned a lot about what teenagers are and are not capable of doing. Sometimes I am disappointed, but as I get better at selecting what to teach and how to let the students learn it, I am more and more impressed with students. Check out some physics education web sites and mailing lists. I read PHYSHARE and PHYSLRNR. If you find these conversations interesting, that is one indicator that you may enjoy teaching physics."
