Yes, they have the same meaning. I would not capitalize Science. There's nothing in there to make it a proper noun.

You can add "... even though he is a..." as another equivalent expression.

You write 'Science' but 'science teacher'. As Barbara says, there is no need to capitalize 'science'.
You can capitalize 'science' if it is part of a name, for example, 'Science Department".

Thank you, Yoong.
