...some math portions of the exams. Teaching is in my bloodlines. My father's side is mostly teachers in their chosen professions. My mother's side is mainly in the field of nursing.

I still remembered my teachers since childhood days. I owe it to...

Hi! My name is Albina Islam. I am a recent Health Sciences graduate applying to medical school. I love the "Ooh" moment when something just clicks for a person and I strive to figure out the different routes it takes to get my students to that point. I have experience tutoring high school and college level students in Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Anatomy & Physiology, Math (Geometry, Algebra, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus I).

...great passion of mine. I try to find a balance between structure and creative thinking when it comes to my tutoring style, and I firmly believe that everyone is capable of achieving great things given the right environment and skill set.

...I love showing students how to do that. I studied Biology at Lehigh University for my undergraduate degree and completed my Master's in Innovation at Yonsei University. My academic background taught me the value of hard work, curiosity, and persistencelessons I bring to every tutoring session. My teaching philosophy is simple: practice makes progress. Sure, explaining and lecturing are important, but the best learning happens when students can dive in, try things out, and connect...
