    About Thomas G.

    5.0
    (1)
    I am a 34 yr old teacher, teaching for 13 years. I graduated from New York Institute of Technology with a Bachelors of Science in Technology as well as a Masters in Educational Technology and Leadership from Adelphi University. Robotics students can expect to improve their knowledge and skills day to day. Every mind has a unique way of learning; I teach students to think outside the box, use imagination and creativity to achieve their goals. I teach robotics students of all different ages and experience levels. I have been teaching and competing in robotics for 13 years. I will teach students to not only design, build, test and program robots but to push the envelope and not be afraid to try something they think is impossible or too hard. I can mentor competition teams as well as coach for an additional cost. I will not build robots for competition for teams to use. I will show them how to do it themselves and guide them to success every step of the way. Robotics, technology, maker spaces, custom fabrication are all passions of mine. To be able to create from nothing and achieve everything is an amazing feeling that I hope everyone could have.
