74 \section{Letters of Recommendation}
75
76 Since I am coming to professional education employment through
77 a non-traditional route, I am not currently certificated. However,
78 I am willing to go through the process. For the last 3.5 years,
79 I have been teaching at Gideon Hausner, a jewish day school for K-8
80 students. During that time, I have built relationships with students,
81 parents, teachers and faculty.
82
83 As a result, while I do not have formal certifications or training
84 in teaching, I do have many letters of recommendation. These letters
85 are from students themselves, parents, and faculty \& staff.

93 {
94 \begin{itemize}
95 \item
96 I helped students with technical portions of science
97 projects. For example, we wired, created wiring diagrams,
98 selected components, troubleshot with multimeter on live
99 circuitry (safely), as well as 3d modeled and printed parts.
100 \item
101 With other teachers, I helped create lesson plans that included
102 parts from various subjects. For example, I created a coding
103 project that incorporated force, momentum, and springs.

107 {
108 \begin{itemize}
109 \item
110 challenge--bot gives students courage and encourages autonomous
111 learning. The design of challenge--bot shows how to build a
112 robot from commonly available parts. Students realize that they
113 can have a completely new idea and go build it from parts on the
114 free market.
115 \item
116 Students have taken this message to heart and brought their
117 ideas into reality. Projects include building a cat feeder and
118 fish feeder. Several students combined their robots and were
119 able to perform more sophisticated tasks. Another student built
120 the same robot, but with much bigger parts, in order to make it
121 faster and last longer.
122 \item
123 Together with Learnika, Erin and I have brought challenge-bot
124 material to Gideon Hausner, a middle school in Palo Alto. In
125 addition, we have taught challenge-bot at the hackerspaces
126 Hacker Dojo and Entropi. I also teach the material at Learnika's
127 own learning center.

132 \begin{itemize}
133 \item
134 I have taught scratch, independent, and advanced coding classes.
135 \item
136 Individual students find tutors through Learnika as well, and I
137 teach them a wide variety of subjects. For software, we cover
138 scratch, python, scheme, and Java. After taking the
139 challenge-bot course at Learnika, students continue on learning
140 robotics topics. We cover soldering, and the robotics software
141 development cycle.

148 Because svn repos were difficult to work with, I converted
149 them to git with ssh keys for authorization.
150 \item
151 After teaching several employees individually how to use git, I
152 created and taught a git workshop.
153 \item
154 I rewrote scripts for handling HL7 communications, automated
155 and documented their installation.
156 \item
157 For a client, I made backwards-compatible features to internally
158 developed markup and processing code.
159 \item
160 Coldfusion setup was tedious, so I scripted it with
161 Expect and translated it to ruby and bash for coworkers.

168 To locate communications problems, I wrote tools which
169 identified the server's memory as the bottleneck.
170 \item
171 Working with UCSD professors, I characterized a reversible
172 chemical sensor reaction's amount and type.
