Bio
Although she was a physics major in college, it was only after an 18-year career in the private sector that Robin Norwich finally realized her dream of becoming a physics teacher. Her classes are among the most rigorous, but she supports students at all levels. For those who want review, she is available before, during, and after school both in-person and by email. For those who want a challenge, she helps coordinate school-wide physics competitions. She is not only a master of the material, she is a master at teaching it. In just her third year at Bayside, Ms. Norwich was voted Teacher of the Year and her acceptance speech captured her love of physics and her sense of humor: “I want you to know, each of you, that you all matter. That is, unless you multiply yourselves by the speed of light, then you are all energy. For those of you in my classes who don’t get the joke, come see me.”
