MY PERSONAL STATEMENT
I specialize in tutoring all and any areas of science and math. I am happy to help both junior and high school students, as well as college students and post-graduates. I feel that individual attention is the key to a students’ success and fine-tune my tutoring approach accordingly. I have a Ph.D. in physical chemistry (physics, math and chemistry) and an undergraduate co-major in chemistry and math (physics minor). I moved to Phoenix about 4 years ago to attend culinary school… after realizing that I did not want to be a chemist for the rest of my life. To make a long story short, I currently do a lot of recipe development and tutoring. Culinary work gives me the chance to be creative, but tutoring gives me the opportunity and privilege to continue to use my strong science/math background and, most importantly, help students realize that they CAN do well! I taught several undergraduate chemistry classes while I was a graduate student and always had very high student evaluations. I also taught a semester of intermediate algebra at a community college in the Phoenix metro area. I have tutored junior and high school students in all areas of math, ranging from geometry and algebra to AP math classes (pre-calculus, etc), as well as many areas of science (biology, chemistry, and physics). My experience with college and post-grad students includes chemistry, physics, calculus, and statistics. In my free time (what free time!?!?), I enjoy running, biking, walking (anything outside!) and baking (you name it—I’ll bake it!).
