After graduation, I joined the US Peace Corps where I provided community health education at a village health center. Instructing village...

I am a 2/5 Biomedical Engineering major at Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, NJ. I have prior experience tutoring mostly high school students in mathematics and science. In my experience, one of the most important aspects of tutoring is setting goals at the very beginning and working toward that goal. My primary goal is to help students become confident in the fields they are studying.
