Erin: Homewood tutor

Certified Tutor

I have always had a passion for knowledge which has lead me to graduate with honor from the Michigan State University's Honors College with a Bachelor of Science in Zoology and spend the past two years working on a Master of Science degree in Evolution, Ecology and Organismal Biology at the Ohio State University. In addition to this lust for learning, I have always had a enjoyed sharing my knowledge with others which has lead me from informal tutoring in high school, to working as both an undergraduate and graduate teaching associate, as well as participating in and even leading a number of biological outreach events for the public. I love teaching and find it immensely satisfying to work one on one with students to help them understand and excel at subjects I am passionate about.

I am a patient and enthusiastic tutor as well as a friendly and outgoing person that has no problem engaging with students in a fun manner. I recognize that each person has different ways of learning that work best for them and believe that each student has the potential to excel at any subject they put their mind to when taught in a style that works for them. I aim to be the tutor that will take the time to figure out how best to teach each of my students so that they will not only understand the material enough to do well in their classes now, but retain the subject matter for future studies.

In my free time I enjoy cooking, going for walks in parks or playing board games with friends, reading comic books or watching tv shows on Netflix.

I look forward to getting to know new students and help them build the confidence and knowledge they need to succeed in their future endeavors!
