Ms. Tammy Nguyen
Hello! Welcome to Career & Technology Education! I'm Ms. Nguyen, and I'm happy to have you in my class this year. This is my 7th year of teaching, and I am currently teaching Fundamentals of Computer Science (FCS) and Gateway to Technology (GTT) for grades 7th and 8th grades. Previously, I taught 4th grade Science, SS, and Math and 6-8th grade Science until I had my son, Thomas! After staying home with him for two years, I explored back into Technology for the last half decade, at the other end of the spectrum, helping students, faculty and staff. Teaching has always been a part of my life, whether teaching children or adults.
Students find out very quickly that I love everything related to technology - computers and computer applications, the internet of things, how technology works, the history of technology, robotics, engineering, and so much more. I enjoy sharing my passion for technology and how technology of all kinds impacts us in our real world.
When I'm not in school, I'm constantly learning. I love to read and explore new concepts of making life easier. I'm often found with my face on a computer screen, and I very often do a lot of research on anything. I enjoy taking my son to theme parks and love anything outdoors; camping, hiking, biking, kayaking, canoeing, and spending time with family, whenever possible.
Fun facts: I am a former Den Leader and also previously held Communications, going into my new role as New Member Coordinator for a Cub Scout Pack. I am a former licensed Investigator and currently CySA+ certified.
