...love to teach/mentor. I have taught/tutored students from high school through graduate school in various topics in math, biology, neuroscience, psychology, statistics, and MATLAB. I particularly enjoy tutoring biology and statistics because these are the two subjects I have the most experience with. I also particularly enjoying teaching the reasoning behind why statistics are so...

...5+ years experience teaching biology and microbiology at the college level. I don't lecture (unless needed most students are already being lectured to), instead I work interactively and respectfully with students to quickly identify areas of struggle and overcome them through explanation, analogy and two-way questioning.
