...immunology, histology and embryology. After completion of my degree, I continued to tutor master students in biochemistry and anatomy. I love to teach using visual aids, quizzes and unique and fun mnemonics/techniques that will make sure you never forget the information you learn. After I receive the class notes and requirements from the student, I prepare an outline and a powerpoint for our session. During our session, I will go through the material and explain,...

I graduated from the University of Florida with Bachelor's degrees in Biomedical Engineering and Biochemistry. My overarching drive in academics has always been to consistently challenge myself in my studies whilst also serving as a mentor to others.... Everyone has the capacity to gain mastery over a subject. I just have to continue finding the right way to convey it.... Asking questions and gauging the student's ability by the answers that they give. Then, as a tutor, I go from that baseline and work upwards.

I do appreciate the learning styles of children as I currently share time each week at a pediatric hospital helping kids learn and...

I am most satisfied when I help my tutees understand the material by relating it to something that they already know. I am very enthusiastic about the variety of students Varsity Tutors offers and eager to share my knowledge with my future students.... I believe that interactive teaching and practicing problems is the best way to facilitate learning. My ultimate goal is leave the student with enough skills and confidence to study on their own.
