...this philosophy, finding creative ways to approach complex concepts. For example, I might steer a writing student studying organic chemistry to explain a reaction as a narrative of molecular interactions, rather than beginning with a complex problem. In the context of shifting careers, I have also taken a number of standardized tests, including the SAT, ACT, GRE, and MCAT. My approach with these tests emphasizes strategy over content; a particular vocabulary word may or may not...

The greatest reward is seeing the smile on a student's face when...

...I tutored fellow students in several science courses, including General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Genetics. I love tutoring General Chemistry because of the many "Aha!" moments when students suddenly make connections from chemistry to the real world. My experience with tutoring has led me to believe that discovery-based learning is the best way to solidify concepts. For this reason I focus on teaching how to use the tools available, like modeling kits and textbooks. In...
