...time, I didn't have that much of a biology background myself. I was still taking AP biology class while she was taking the general biology. I wasn't even the best student in that AP class, but my AP biology teacher approached me and asked me to sit down with that friend after school and tutor her in preparation for her up coming biology exam. Even though I was lacking myself, I remember reviewing all my...

...to academic success is not a solo one, and I am grateful for the opportunity to share what I know in a way that inspires and educates students.

...prep, study habits and time management, college applications, and much more. Science may not come naturally to some students, but I believe that enthusiasm and persistence are more important than natural ability. I hope to share my passion for science with younger learners.

...University of Cincinnati. I am most passionate about subjects that can be applied to human medicine, including Anatomy, Physiology, Cellular and Molecular Biology, Pharmacology and Microbiology.

My goal as a tutor is to give my students that fundamental understanding,...

...being wrong. As a tutor and mentor, my role is to create a comfortable learning environment where students focus on how wrong answers help them to arrive at the right answer. I always told my students that I am open to all answers and that no one is ever truly wrong. No one should feel that their contribution to a learning environment is ever wrong. In addition to mentoring elementary and middle school students, I...

...for them. What works or makes sense for one student will not necessarily work for the next student, and so it is essential as a tutor to be able to explain the same concept in a variety of different ways and to be able to determine when a student has fully grasped the concept. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family and pets, working on creative activities such as drawing and writing,...
