...really excited to start dental school at Texas A&M-Baylor College of Dentistry in the fall! Through my years of experience of being a student, I realized the most valuable classes to me weren't necessary the ones I found most important. Rather, it was where the teachers lit up the classroom by sharing their passion for the subject and really engaged the class. I try to approach tutoring in the same way. I believe student teachers...

...not learn about my love for Biology and my appreciation for the sciences until my undergraduate career. After finishing my B.S. in Biology, I pursued further graduate coursework at the University of Copenhagen in Denmark. There, I studied Molecular and Human Biology.

Each of us is born curious about the world around us. Science explains this curiosity, but sometimes the explanations become confusing. I love science and I enjoy making difficult concepts clear and meaningful. When concepts make sense, it is easy to recall them on tests and quizzes! My background includes 24 years of public school science teaching and three years at a private high school. Currently, I teach biology and chemistry as an adjunct professor.

...a student at Washington University in St. Louis studying Biology as well as Global Health and Environment. I have been tutoring for four years in a broad range of subjects including Algebra, Biology, Chemistry, English, and SAT prep. At WashU, I work as a peer mentor for General Chemistry in which I lead small groups through problem sets every week. As a tutor, I think it is critical to not only teach the student but...

...to help attain command of critical concepts encountered. When preparing for exams, it is easy to become discouraged if the results do not match the effort exerted by the student. Often times students preparing for USMLE exams, tests in physics, biology, chemistry, or psychology will spend large amounts of time inundating themselves with terminology and immense volumes of notes, potentially leading to discouragement and disengaging study habits. I believe that successful test scores in scientific...

...topics, I am most passionate about science and reading/writing. While these seem like two entirely different subjects, I like to think of it this way - science is about understanding the world around us, which we access and make beautiful through literature. I have always enjoyed making these subjects as fun for my students to learn as they are for me to teach. My goal in teaching is to foster in my students a fiery...

I have long enjoyed enjoyed working with others to help them achieve personal goals. Some of the most fulfilling tutoring I have done recently have been tutoring immigrants for the US Citizenship Test, helping formerly incarcerated individuals attain their GEDs, and tutoring children in Honduras on conversational English to obtain high-paying jobs in the tourism industry.

In addition to my teaching experience I scored a 41 on the MCAT as well as a 1440 on the SAT(don't remember my writing score).
