Certified Tutor

I am a passionate educator with a Master of Science and an Honours Bachelor of Science from the University of Toronto. As a former university teaching assistant, I've had the privilege of instructing courses ranging from molecular biology and forensic science to statistics and genetics. My love for learning fuels my dedication to helping students grasp challenging concepts, utilizing their strengths to enhance understanding and improve grades.

Specializing in science, biology, genetics, biostatistics, and research methodology, I thrive on guiding students through the intricate world of DNA and scientific inquiry. My teaching philosophy revolves around leveraging each student's unique abilities to tackle difficult topics with confidence and clarity. I enjoy relaxed but focused one on one tutoring sessions because I believe that students learn best in a more relaxed setting where they can ask questions freely!

Beyond academia, I find joy in the art of crochet, weaving creativity into my leisure time. I am committed to fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment where students can thrive academically and personally. Let's embark on a journey of discovery together!
