I’M THOM GIBSON
I’m Thom and I’m a two-time teacher-of-the-year middle-school STEM teacher in Austin, TX.
I went into the classroom in the Fall of 2011 and like many educators, I had a vision that my classroom would be a place students loved to be in. A place students remembered for years to come.
That first year was rough, but I continued to learn and grow with each year in the classroom.
I studied audio engineering & media in college and so I now get the pleasure of combining the world of media and the world of education into the content that I share with you.
