About Me

  • I'm a mom to two wonderful children and two adorable senior dogs.
  • I absolutely love dogs and the ocean.
  • I'm always wondering how things work and occasionally like taking things apart.
  • I'm a UC Santa Barbara graduate (B.S. Microbiology / M.S. Environmental Science).
  • My husband is also a UC Santa Barbara graduate.
  • I earned my science teaching credential at National University.
  • I was an English Learner in Middle School and vividly remember the frustration of not understanding instruction due to language. As such, I'm very patient and strive to make content understandable to all students. Please ask as many questions as you need to in order to understand the content. 
  • I speak Farsi fluently.
  • In my spare time, I love to read and take lots of photos of my family or scenery. 
  • I love the state of Montana! 
  • The best method of contacting me is through email. 
  • I have a twitter account and if you wish you may also follow me on Twitter. My handle is @MsYassi
