About Wesley

Bio

I am an experienced science educator with 30 years of teaching experience at both the secondary and postsecondary levels. I hold a Master of Science in Natural Sciences (MSNS) and a Bachelor of Science in Education (BSE), both from Delta State University in Mississippi. Throughout my career, I have taught science courses ranging from seventh-grade general science to college-level biology. My college teaching experience includes biology courses at Montgomery College, Hinds Community College,...

I am an experienced science educator with 30 years of teaching experience at both the secondary and postsecondary levels. I hold a Master of Science in Natural Sciences (MSNS) and a Bachelor of Science in Education (BSE), both from Delta State University in Mississippi. Throughout my career, I have taught science courses ranging from seventh-grade general science to college-level biology. My college teaching experience includes biology courses at Montgomery College, Hinds Community College, and Holmes Community College. I currently teach Biomedical Sciences at Eastern High School in Washington, D.C., where I also serve as District Course Chair for Biomedical Science and Biotechnology.

My teaching experience encompasses general biology, human anatomy and physiology, genetics, microbiology, and biomedical sciences. At Eastern High School, I teach Project Lead The Way (PLTW) courses, including Principles of Biomedical Science, Medical Interventions, and Biomedical Innovation. I have extensive experience working with students of different ages, academic abilities, and learning styles in traditional classrooms, laboratory settings, and individualized instructional environments. My teaching methods emphasize breaking complex scientific concepts into understandable components, using real-world examples, visual aids, hands-on activities, and problem-based learning.

I believe effective science education goes beyond memorizing facts and vocabulary. My goal is to help students understand scientific concepts, develop critical-thinking skills, and build confidence in their abilities. I use a mastery-based approach that allows students to receive individualized support and progress as they demonstrate understanding. Whether helping a middle school student develop foundational science skills, supporting a high school biology student, or assisting a college student with challenging biological concepts, I strive to make science accessible, engaging, and relevant.

Approved Subjects

Anatomy

Anatomy

I have 30 years of science teaching experience, including three years teaching a dedicated Human Anatomy course and 16 years integrating human anatomy into Biomedical Sciences instruction. I hold a Master of Science in Natural Sciences and a Bachelor of Science in Education from Delta State University. As a Project Lead The Way (PLTW) Biomedical Sciences instructor, I regularly teach human anatomy through Principles of Biomedical Science, Medical Interventions, and Biomedical Innovation, emphasizing body systems, anatomical structures, physiological functions, and their relationships to human health and disease. My instructional approach combines anatomical models, visual learning tools, clinical case studies, and real-world medical applications to help students understand complex anatomical concepts and develop a strong foundation for further study in science and healthcare.
Biology

Biology

I have 30 years of science teaching experience, including more than eight years teaching Biology I, as well as extensive experience teaching Biology II and Advanced Placement (AP) Biology. I have also taught introductory college-level biology courses at Holmes Community College and Hinds Community College, giving me experience preparing students for the academic demands of higher education. I hold a Master of Science in Natural Sciences and a Bachelor of Science in Education from Delta State University, with a strong academic background in biological sciences, botany, and ecology. My teaching approach emphasizes breaking down complex biological concepts, including cell biology, genetics, evolution, ecology, and human physiology, through real-world examples, visual learning strategies, and individualized instruction that builds understanding and confidence.
Botany

Botany

I have 30 years of science teaching experience, including three years teaching Botany and Field Botany, and hold a Master of Science in Natural Sciences from Delta State University, where much of my graduate coursework focused on Botany and Ecology. I established the herbarium at Velma Jackson High School, personally contributing more than 30 preserved plant specimens to its collection. I also contributed several botanical specimens to the Delta State University herbarium, gaining valuable hands-on experience in plant identification, collection, preservation, and classification. My teaching approach combines botanical theory with practical field experiences to help students understand plant anatomy, physiology, taxonomy, ecology, and the relationships between plants and their environments.
Ecology

Ecology

I have 30 years of science teaching experience and hold a Master of Science in Natural Sciences from Delta State University, where much of my graduate coursework focused on ecology and plant systematics. My advanced studies included specialized courses in Soil Science, Ecomorphology, and Wetland Ecology, providing me with a strong understanding of ecological relationships, environmental processes, and the interactions between organisms and their environments. My background also includes three years teaching Botany and Field Botany, establishing a high school herbarium, and contributing preserved plant specimens to both my school's collection and the Delta State University herbarium. I use real-world ecological examples, field-based observations, and inquiry-based instruction to help students understand ecosystems, biodiversity, population dynamics, ecological succession, and environmental conservation.
Zoology

Zoology

I have 30 years of science teaching experience, including three years teaching Zoology and Field Zoology. I hold a Master of Science in Natural Sciences from Delta State University and have taught science courses at both the secondary and college levels. My zoology instruction emphasizes animal classification, anatomy, physiology, behavior, ecology, and the relationships between organisms and their environments. I incorporate real-world examples, field observations, and hands-on learning to help students understand zoological concepts and develop scientific inquiry skills.
