I'm Shane White.

Summary

---

I'm passionate about education and teaching. The most important thing we can give students is an opportunity to create without limitation.

I have spent the past 10 years:

Creating curriculum and teaching computer science and game design to students of all ages

Tutoring middle and high school students

Teaching science to elementary students

I think I'm getting pretty good at it.
