I was introduced to VT by a friend. I love interacting with students and share my knowledge with them, watch them learn subjects and succeed. I enjoy the results that we get out of our shared effort.

...is going to use math in real life?" I always say ME! I DO! because working in science means understanding data, statistics, mathematical models, and calculus. Why do you need to know what slope intercept form of a linear equation is? Because it lets to do regression models to find out the relationship between variables...

...of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, majoring in Molecular and Cellular Biology has exposed me to a rigorous curriculum that has prepared me to take on the challenges most young students have academically.
