...mentor. I understand that learning is challenging and that patience is very necessary to be successful in tutoring. I have also learned that a tutor is also a mentor not just an instructor that just tells the students which problems to do in their textbook. My tutoring philosophy is to have the student show me what they know and build on it. I will explain and teach them to remember what they do not already...

...my passion for tutoring through tutoring my friends in high school. These classes ranged from any math level from algebra to AP Calculus BC and most science courses (AP Biology, Chemistry, and Physics).

...subjects and students, I am most passionate about tutoring mathematics and science. Through my experience as a high school tutor and college teaching assistant, I've directly observed the challenges students face in grasping these subjects, particularly at early education levels or among those with learning differences.

...everything for me. However, I believe that the passion for education needs to come from within. Thus, when tutoring my students, I think it is crucial that the tutor teaches and shares their knowledge, but students also need to do their part. This includes being active learners and training their minds to be critical thinkers, which will help students gain a better knowledge of the subjects they are weak in. In my spare time, I...

I also believe that practice makes perfect: putting theory into practice is the best way to become comfortable with new...

...and other interesting biological techniques, as well as interesting stories and facts from professors of Ecology, Immunology, and other biological fields. It's my belief that students learn most if the material is made relevant and interesting and they are encouraged to ask questions.
