Sanjar+Hekmati

Hello my name is Sanjar Hekmati, I am in my second year at Bernalillo high school teaching physics and physical science. I have endorsements in both math and science and I taught algebra and pre-calculs last school year. I graduaded from UNM in 2007 with a BS in biology and minor in math. I am enrolled in the masters program at UNM and hope graduate next semester. So far, teaching has been challenging but also fun.

My interests are sports and math, and due to my deep interest in sports, I have made the choice to teach high school because it lets me be involved in high school athletics. I have a strong family pedegree in education. My mother was a teacher, my grandfather was a professor, and I have about ateast 5 cousins who are teachers. I hope to someday teach at a college level, or get involved in administration.
