I have been helping people learn physics and math at college level since the fall semester of 2000. This Spring 2024 quarter I am teaching one section each of Physics 116, Physics 222, and Physics 223. I enjoy teaching physics & math because I enjoy helping other people learn these topics, and helping those who have had bad experiences with math and science find competency and confidence in the subject as they move toward their long-term academic goals. My students can best reach me through Canvas messaging.

Prof Rose received a Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering and Physics, Master of Science degree in Teaching Physics, and Doctor of Philosophy degree in Curriculum and Instruction in Secondary & Continuing Education from University of Illinois. Sara worked as adjunct faculty for the college since September 2019, and was recently hired as full-time tenure track physics faculty.

Primarily trained as a physics professor, I have a M.S. in the Teaching of Physics and my doctorate is in Adult & Continuing Education with emphasis on STEM Curriculum & Instruction.
