Hello Matt,
Itās nice to meet you. I taught middle school for 2 years, it was ok but I prefer high school.
Hello Peter,
Thanks for your post. Computer science has a lot of math incorporated in it and it focuses on problem solving, so I believe the transition should be very easy.
All the best.
Iām looking to move to high school ASAP.
