Outside of academia, I work as a barista and I skate on an adult synchronized ice...

...focusing on both was perfect for me because I was able to develop analytical and problem-solving skills in two very different contexts. Having this background also allows me to feel comfortable tutoring a range of subjects. My tutoring style can best be described as collaborative. Much of the time the problems we will tackle together will be difficult or confusing, and I will guide our work to hone in on exactly where the difficulty lies....

...diverse learning and studying techniques. I am currently pursuing a Masters in Science at Drexel University as a I work on applying to medical school. I am fluent in Spanish and French (thus enjoy tutoring both) but definitely have experience tutoring science and business courses as well.

...teaching and have experience tutoring introductory chemistry and biology courses, teaching undergraduates in a laboratory setting, and mentoring incoming graduate students. I have lectured sections at the undergraduate and graduate level of biology, focused on general biology and microbiology. I have also furthered my knowledge in pedagogy by taking courses in teaching the natural sciences through case-study based learning, as well as on the challenges of teaching the natural sciences in general. In the future,...

...lots of students, with different age. While I tutor a Chemistry and French, I am most passionate about Neuroscience, Language, and Microbiology. In my experience helping struggling students prepare for tests and exams, we always seem to have the most fun. At the end of the day, they get confident and sure to get good grades. They always give me feedback, which I truly consider; because we become better by improving what we are good....

...tasks like working through peer reviewed papers or designing research projects. I also teach two middle school biology classes over zoom.
