02/2012 - 02/2013 NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF ASUNCIÓN, PARAGUAY
Description: I taught advanced courses, many were electives (COMPLEMENTS TO THEORETICAL PHYSICS, LASER TECHNOLOGIES, MODERN PHYSICS I and II, CLASSIC MECHANICS, as well as conducting a seminar in ASTROPHYSICS). Most students were in their last two years of their career. Reason For Leaving: I committed to only one year as a visiting professor. I have a minor daughter in the USA. · Very interesting experience, driving my own car (Dodge Avenger 2008) roundtrip from Miami to Paraguay. Spent 11 adventurous months on the road (10,000 miles). Enjoyed every bit of it, this was the opportunity of a lifetime! I did cross Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, Chile, Perú, Ecuador, Bolivia, Colombia, Panamá, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, Belize, and México. Driving my own car I had the option to stop wherever I wanted, and select any route worth to take :-). ======*******====== 08/2009 -
07/2011 Doctors Charter High School
Description: I taught EARTH SCIENCE, PHYSICAL SCIENCE and PHYSICS Reason For Leaving: Opportunity to teach at a LatAm university (UNA, Paraguay). ======*******====== 08/2008 -
07/2009 DASH (Design and Architecture Senior High)
Description: I taught INTEGRATED SCIENCE, Both the Principal, Dr. Mancuso, and the Science Department Director (James Almeroth) wrote excellent letters of recommendation. This is a high school that ranks in the top 100, nationally! They have a very scrutinous process for selecting faculty. Reason For Leaving: Small school, could not offered a full time due to financial crisis in our country after the financial collapse (2006-7). I was working part time while my house in Wellington (100 miles away) was in a foreclosure process, yet ended up being just a short-sale instead. I could not afford to continue part time. We were expecting the Physics instructor to retire, and I would have taken over his classes as well (completing enough load for a full job), but it did not happen, he decided to stick around for another year or two. ======*******====== 08/2006 -
