Teacher’s name

Nicole Jensik

How do you know the teacher?

She is my niece

What does this person teach?

Physics

Why do you believe the teacher should be recognized or honored?

She is passionate about teaching and loves science. She always wanted to be a teacher even as a young girl, playing school with her older sister. She tutors many students and always does her best to make sure even struggling students are provided the teaching/course curriculum/experiments, etc. they need to understand physics. She has tutored many students outside of school to help them hone their knowledge of Science and Math as they prepare for ACT/SAT tests. Not only does she teach, but she also coaches the boy's bowling team which has had a few of the bowlers make it to state championship tournaments. In the summer she works at a summer science camp in Naperville, something she has been doing for several years now. She loves to share science with the younger kids who attend this camp.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the teacher?

She is compassionate and loves what she does...teaching!
