Teacher and coach in Carleton Place

Tomorrows innovators starts with today's minds.

Hi, I’m Nathan. I’m a teacher at Carleton Place High School. I teach Business, Math, and PhysEd. I try to coach as many sports as I can, as I feel students show a different side of them. Hockey is my favourite sport to play, watch, and coach.

I knew I wanted to be a teacher since I was little, and I am glad I stuck with my dream until the end. The last two years of teaching have taught me that students need to have LOTS of fun, responsibility, and a safe place to be themselves. Seeing a student solve a problem, or answer a question correctly really makes the job worthwhile!
