I...

I believe that every student can learn the material they hope to with the right guidance and effort. I hope...

...to memorize individual facts. With science and math, it is important to dedicate a lot of time when beginning a subject to clearly understand these core concepts. I have found that successfully approaching these subjects in a bottom-up way can mean the difference between continuously struggling frustratingly through courses like organic chemistry and learning to love them. Completing my first year of medical school has given me a new appreciation for the role that science...

...bottom up, so that it's easier to see how all the pieces of a topic fit together. A ten page paper might seem intimidating, until you break it down into a list of bullet points and ideas.

...sure that she focused on each skill alone and ignored everything else that seemed confusing. Two weeks later, she got the hang of it. I tutor by presenting the subject matter in a similar way while frequently setting attainable goals so that students will realize how easy it is for them to master subjects on their own. It is the same method I use to learn all of the challenging material I encounter every day....

I have struggled through different levels of education and have ultimately come through with success. I understand the frustration being unable to grasp concept, not understanding a lecture and feeling lost afterword. I would never want students to feel the same level of frustration.
