Do you know who is the science, literature, and homeroom teacher for the Jr. High at Project Learn School (PLS)? Do you know who teaches the Forces in Motion and the 8th grade elective? He is a local who lives in Mt. Airy and plays the guitar for fun, too. It’s Liam Gallagher!
Liam Gallagher was born on May 7, 1982 to Steve and Nancy Gallagher who live in Narberth, PA. His father, Steve, teaches leadership and marketing classes at St. Joesph’s University. His mother, Nancy, is the manager at Manrissa Nursing Home for Priests. Liam grew up as the 2nd youngest of five brothers. His brother’s are Kevin, who is 28 and the youngest; Seamus, who is 33; Pat, who is 34; and the oldest brother, Brendan, who is 36.
When asked about growing up with so many brothers, Liam said, “It was great! I always had someone to play with and they taught me a lot of things. There was always a lot of excitement in the house and it was nice knowing that my brothers were always there to watch out for me!”
About growing up, Liam said, “I was always a big reader and usually read fantasy or science fiction books. I played outside a lot and always had a love for nature. I also played basketball, baseball and was on the high school swim team.” Liam went to St. Margaret's Elementary School in Narbreth until 3rd grade, Slingerlands Elementary 3-5th, Bethlehem Central Middle School and High School. He also attended The University of Buffalo for his undergraduate degree and the University of Washington, in Seattle, for his masters degree.
Liam started teaching at PLS four years ago and taught science to Aubrey’s, Lisa’s, and the Jr. High groups up until this year when he took on some new responsibilities teaching Jr. High English. He is also the homeroom teacher for the Jr. High. Liam said, “It's definitely a change of pace for me, (teaching English) but I am enjoying the challenge. It's fun having different types of discussions with the students and exploring the literary sides of their brains. In English they have been examining short stories and writing their own. We are now working on reading full length books, which are; Endurance and The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind ” This year’s science curriculum is Life Science. “We are currently studying genetics,” he said, “and about to start a five paragraph essay on Genetic Engineering.”
In his spare time Liam likes to write music, and play the guitar. He plays regularly at Earth Bread and Brewery, every other Thursday night. His band is called, The Big Folking Experiment, BFE. “I’ve been playing music for 15 years and it keeps me balanced,” declared Liam.
