Kinjal

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of Texas A&M University; I received a Bachelor of Science in Biology along with being a minor in Spanish. I also studied at Plano ISD in high school. As Plano ISD is recognized for its academic achievements and competitiveness, I have always been positively challenged by my curriculum and by my peers to improve and to push myself to excel. From a young age, I have always been a part of the Gifted and Talented program. Trying to challenge myself and wanting to be different, I took a risk and joined the International Baccalaureate (IB) Program, a program that was not as well recognized at the time and was extremely difficult. Joining the IB program was the best decision I have taken thus far. I gained knowledge from all around world- different insights, different histories, different philosophies, different literature, etc.

At Texas A&M University, I had the proper study skills to excel and obtained the knowledge I wanted from my college education. At A&M, I was very involved with the pre-medical organizations and spend my time volunteering at nursing homes and at hospitals. I also have a interest for research and have done that extensively. What has kept me sane and focused throughout all of this is dance. I started dancing during elementary school and am now a part of Wreckin' Raas, a Texas A&M national dance team. Dance has always served as an outlet in which I can make the rules. Not only does it help me escape from the pressures of the academic world but also it allows me to convey my emotions in a healthy manner.

During my high school years, I tutored through Plano East National Honors Society and in my college years, I worked as a Supplemental Instruction Leader in charge of a class of students. I have been tutoring students of all ages, which helped me discover that I want to help others realize their goal. I work n a broad variety of subjects including calculus, physics, SAT preparation, and more. My favorite subjects to tutor are math and science because I have the most experience in those subjects. My purpose is to not impart knowledge to others as a teacher but as a friend who has been through similar courses, knows all the tricks and traps, and can guide peers without the intimidation of a professor.
