I have been in the gemology industry for over 10 years, starting as a gemologist apprentice and working my way up to becoming a certified gemologist. I have experience grading diamonds, identifying and evaluating gemstones, and providing consultations for clients.

I have been teaching gemology for the past 5 years at a prominent jewelry school. In addition to instructing classes, I have also developed and led workshops and seminars for industry professionals.

I stay up-to-date on the latest advancements in gemology by regularly attending industry conferences and workshops, reading trade publications, and participating in online gemology communities. I am also a member of professional organizations such as the Gemological Institute of America (GIA).

I believe in a hands-on, interactive teaching approach. I like to use real-world examples and case studies to make the material relatable and engaging for my students. I also believe in providing ample opportunities for students to ask questions and practice the skills they are learning.

I use a combination of traditional methods such as lesson plans and handouts, as well as technology tools such as learning management systems and online resources to stay organized. I also like to have regular check-ins with students to ensure they are on track and understand the material.

I believe in differentiating instruction to meet the needs of all students. I use a variety of teaching methods such as visual aids, hands-on activities, and group work to accommodate different learning styles. I also make myself available for one-on-one help and extra support for students who need it.
