Certified Tutor

I am a recent graduate with a master's in Molecular Medicine and Innovative Treatment (MSc MMIT) from the University of Groningen and a master's in Medical Science from Uppsala University, earned through the Erasmus+ International Double Master in Innovative Medicine (IMIM) program. My academic journey began at Oklahoma State University, where I completed a bachelor's degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, with minors in Spanish and Microbiology.

I have been tutoring since 2016, offering personalized, one-on-one sessions in subjects including algebra, geometry, ACT preparation, Spanish, and biology. My approach centers on creating a positive and supportive learning environment, helping students build confidence and a strong self-concept in their academic abilities.

My background in scientific research, including studies in neuroscience and oncology, informs my teaching, bringing real-world applications into our sessions. I am passionate about education and committed to empowering my students to achieve their academic goals.

Hobbies

I am very enthusiastic and passionate about education and growth. As minority women I faced many obstacles in order to receive an education but I believe those experiences have positively influenced and shaped me. I enjoy reading and love running by lakes and rivers. I wish I could do more runs by the beach, hopefully in the future!
