I am a State of Michigan certified chemistry teacher who taught Honors and AP Chemistry for over 35 years at a top-ranked public school. I have been teaching AP Chemistry with Pennsylvania Homeschoolers for the past 17 years. I received a BS in Science and a Master of Science Education degree at Wayne State University and have worked at numerous National Science Foundation teacher programs. As part of my Master's program, I worked with the Fairleigh Dickinson University Lab in St Croix monitoring coral reef oxygen respiration rates. I was sponsored by the Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation as a Woodrow Wilson Fellow at Princeton. While working for the National Science Foundation's Project Seraphim, I led workshops for chemistry teachers around the country, developed computer software applications for chemistry education, and hosted the International Internet Conference, CHYMNET, for chemistry educators. I have served as editor for the Journal of Chemical Education and I have served as a reviewer for Cengage’s WebAssign® chemistry question database. I am a major contributor to and group expert on the AP Chemistry Teacher Forum. Over the years, many of my students have been award winners in ACS Chemistry Olympiad competitions.
In 2003, I was recognized as an inspiring, distinguished teacher, and received the prestigious Presidential Scholars Teacher Recognition Award. This honor is awarded to only one hundred teachers in the United States each year. At the reception, held in Washington, D.C., I had the honor of dining with Mrs. Bush, the First Lady.
I’m Mary Ann, Mr. Moskaluk’s wife, and I handle the many behind‑the‑scenes tasks that keep his AP® Chemistry course running smoothly. I truly enjoy working with students and parents, and I respond quickly to any administrative questions. This support allows Mr. Moskaluk to focus entirely on the ever‑evolving AP® Chemistry curriculum, teaching his class, answering questions on the discussion board, recording instructional videos, and designing new labs.
We are incredibly proud of our students and their exceptional performance on the AP® Chemistry Exam year after year. For the past 17 years, Mr. Moskaluk’s students have consistently outperformed the global averages by a wide margin. I like to think I’ve contributed to that success by making sure he can devote all his time to teaching our wonderful students.
