Certified Tutor

I recently completed my Master's of Science from Boston University School of Medicine and will be continuing my education in Fall 2019 with a PhD in Biomedical Engineering. My undergraduate background is in Neuroscience and Chemistry from Vanderbilt University. Throughout my years of schooling, I have continued to tutor an array of students ranging from college to high school focusing on the Sciences and Math specifically Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biology, Cell Biology, Biochemistry, Anatomy and Physiology, and Calculus.
Hard work and learning is easier with interest and engagement. I make the environment interactive and comfortable with patience and a sense of humor. I focus on helping individuals firmly understand concepts and be able to use those concepts in problem solving. Each session is an opportunity to ask questions, make mistakes, and expand one's intellect. I am dedicated to being an active part of each student's academic journey.
