...upon many disciplines where I have consequently gained a holistic and integrative understanding of the sciences. When it comes to turoring, I strongly believe in not just teaching the "whats", but also the "whys". I have found that using real world comparisons and a mixture of visual examples makes the material relatable and retainable. My...
