Dr. LaMaster is dedicated to helping students build strong critical thinking skills and a deep understanding of scientific concepts. He believes education should go beyond memorization, focusing instead on helping students make connections and apply what they learn to real-world problems.

A variety of teaching methods—including interactive technology, molecular visualizers, and humor—are employed to make complex topics engaging and accessible. Drawing on his own life experiences, he fosters an inclusive and supportive classroom where all students are encouraged to succeed, regardless of their background or challenges.

Dr. LaMaster holds the philosophy that with curiosity, effort, an open mind, and open communication, every student can grow and succeed.
