Lydia

Certified Tutor

As a rising senior at Vanderbilt University pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Biochemistry, I am passionate about making complex subjects like biology and chemistry accessible and engaging for my students. With over two years of tutoring experience, I have worked with a diverse range of learners, including middle school students and adults, helping them grasp challenging concepts through relatable examples and a patient, understanding approach. My tutoring philosophy centers on creating a welcoming environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and learning at their own pace. I believe that education should not just be about memorization but about fostering curiosity and real-life applications of scientific principles. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy engaging in research and exploring the practical impacts of science, which further fuels my enthusiasm for teaching.
