Or in addition to an aural discussion of a Scene in Hamlet I will...

I'm a recent PhD graduate in Bioengineering in the Boston area. My thesis involved nanoparticles and bacterial infections, but as a biomedical engineer I've had training in circuits, mechanics, some programming, chemistry and biology. Tutoring for me is a collaborative effort, following a problem-based learning with questions that will lead the student towards the answer they're looking for while providing a well-rounded understanding of why and how that answer works.

I can teach all subjects on these tests, and I have developed my own materials that are based on previously released...

The mindset of curiosity and enthusiasm that comes from a game...
