...at ASU's tutoring center. This experience has given me a sense of which topics are particularly troubling to students, and how to best explain these topics in a way that is understandable. When I tutor, I try to make the subject as easy and approachable as possible. Sometimes science classes can seem more difficult than they actually are, and I try to help others realize this. I am also well-versed in the structure and content...

...in organic chemistry and biology to prepare for upcoming exams. In my past tutoring experiences and review sessions, I always used different colors and incorporated diagrams to improve conceptual understanding because I firmly believe every problem can be solved; if we have a solid foundation and truly understand a concept, we can apply it to any given scenario and figure out the solution. In order to make sure of this, I always encourage students to...

Over the years, having worked with and observed many fellow students, I've concluded that simply 'being smart' is not the key to succeeding in any subject; it's finding a reason to care about what you're learning, and managing the information thrown at you. Now, this is a wonderful, wonderful thing, because while I cannot make anyone 'smarter,' I can help them break information down until they understand it and show...
