January Academic Staff of the Month

January Academic Staff of the Month

Emerick Neitzer is our newest teacher at Brehm Preparatory School, shining a unique light on science concepts for our students.

A veteran teacher in the Carbondale community, Emerick stepped into the Brehm family to teach environmental science, chemistry, biology, and other concepts within the field of scientific inquiry. He is known by the students for his impressive implementation of technology in the classroom, a mix of hands-on activities and experiments, his laid-back approach to classroom discussion, and having the sweetest dog in the world, Dara whom he shares with his class several days a week. His ability to teach complex concepts in a sequential and robust manner while also breaking them down for differentiated instruction is tremendous and entirely in line with the academic tradition Brehm has fostered for 40 years.

In addition to all this, Emerick is masterful in his use of Google Classroom to deliver instruction in a multi-media format. Students interact within the classroom with the material and are able to revisit it when needed for review. He has also found other online tools that help students prepare for different types of testing situations in order to prepare the college-bound for higher stakes testing.

We are greatly blessed to have such a talented teacher with us at Brehm. Congratulations, Emerick on being our January  Academic Staff of the Month!
