About The Teacher Hello and welcome to my class! Before we go on explore the world of chemistry, I would like to formally introduce my self. My name is Raul Carlos Serrano Jr. and I was born in San Diego in 1981. I attended school in San Diego where I graduated from Mission Bay High. Upon graduation I decided to explore the world via the United States Air Force where I served for four years maintaining cargo aircraft. I am a veteran of the Afghanistan War earned several medals for my performance. After the military I attended Mesa Community College where I transfered to UCSD to obtain my bachelors in Biochemistry through UCSD's Chemistry Department. After I graduated I immediately attended UCSD's Educational Studies Program and received a Masters Degree and Teaching Credential in Science Education. My missions is to provide students with brief understanding on chemistry through rigorous course work and lab hands-on experiences. This course is a requirement for the California's University and CSU system and I try to prepare students for the critical thinking challenges they will encounter in college. I believe chemistry can be fun and exciting while at the same time tough to understand at times. But be assured that if you work hard in my class, I will do everything to accommodate your intellectual curiosity to push you further into a wold of wonder and amazement in science.
