Teaching Science with Clarity, Fun, and Faith | Bill Harmon | Ep. 172

“You have to meet students where they are… and then slowly bring them to where they need to go.” - Bill Harmon Bill Harmon has spent 45 years helping students see that science and math aren’t “for the gifted”… they’re for learners! In this episode, Jenny Copeland sits down with BJU Press digital instructor Bill Harmon, beloved by students for making tough concepts clear, memorable, and even fun. Bill shares practical ways to start class with momentum, build confidence in anxious learners, and keep both high-flyers and struggling students engaged. Along the way, he offers unforgettable teaching hooks (yes, including “metals lose electrons” on a graduation cap), simple differentiation strategies, and classroom ideas that make learning stick. They also go deeper into biblical worldview shaping—moving beyond “tacking on a verse” to helping students see God’s order, consistency, and character reflected in the laws and patterns of creation.  Every day in the classroom is YOUR day to impact and inspire through God’s power and grace working in you.  Go do what God has called you to do! “If you can make it memorable, they’ll carry it with them for years.” - Bill Harmon “Two atoms walk into each other. ‘Are you okay?’ ‘No, I lost an electron.’ ‘Are you sure?’ ‘Yes, I’m positive.’” - Bill Harmon About Our Guest Bill Harmon serves as a digital instructor at BJU Press, teaching secondary math and science.  Originally from the suburbs of Pittsburgh, Bill spent many years in central Florida.  Bill accepted the Lord while in high school and went on to earn an undergraduate degree in Chemistry and a graduate degree in secondary education.  After teaching for several years in central Florida, Bill taught in a Christian school in South Carolina.  At BJU Press, Bill was a BJ LINC Chemistry and Physical Science teacher and now teaches for video courses – of which he currently has 10 ranging from Science 6 to Physics.
