Shivani: Edmonton tutor

Certified Tutor

I major in Biomedical Sciences at Texas A&M University and have a minor in English. I plan on attending medical school and becoming a clinical psychiatrist. I have tutored for 4 years now, starting with age groups 4-10 and later on began to teach high school and middle school students, helping them prepare for AP subjects and SAT/ACT testing. My strong suit is in English ( Literature, Grammar, Writing, and especially SAT/ACT English and Grammar sections, and SSAT middle level and upper-level testing), I am a self-published author myself and believe that language is the backbone of education. Students that struggle with English simply need the proper guidance that our school systems tend to lack when it comes to this subject, especially in writing. Creative writing is something that brings pure enjoyment to me and I believe it really allows young people to expand their thinking in ways they aren't challenged to in everyday situations. I work with every student and find ways to expand on their skill-sets, specializing in my teaching style for each individual. I am also a pre-med student so I have ample experience in sciences and social sciences such as Chemistry, Biology, and Psychology. Teaching any age group is a rewarding experience in itself, giving students confidence and allowing them to unlock their potential is what makes this profession as rewarding as it is.
