Katarina: Cicero tutor
Certified Tutor
I am pursuing my Bachelor's in Biomedicine. As a kid, I was the one who ran away from math and science. It was difficult subject matter and I never imagined to study it in college until I had a teacher who changed that for me. Through tutoring, I love to make the subject matter easy to understand and enjoyable. I hope to be able to show kids math and science in a way where they can all understand and feel no intimidation or pressure. I always see potential in all students no matter what character or background. I always look for the best in all and believe that they all can achieve their goals with the right motivation and determination. I have a lot of patience, especially when one is unable to understand a subject matter from the first glance.
