Everybody learns, and everybody learns differently. The importance of pedagogy, the practice of teaching, cannot be overstated. It is not enough to share knowledge; knowledge must be communicated. This is the philosophy by which I have tutored and by which I currently tutor. With 4th grade students and with college-age students, with students in America and with students in Japan, I have helped new ideas and information take root and blossom to the satisfaction of student and tutor alike. I love those moments of recognition as someone internalizes knowledge, when an unfamiliar idea becomes familiar, and the creative ability such moments foster. My aim as a tutor is to understand how my students learn, so that they can do so most efficiently.

Hobbies: reading, music, writing, art, movies, books, travel

As a dedicated tutor in my final year of my Doctorate in Osteopathic Medicine program and over 2 years of experience, I am passionate about fostering a supportive learning environment that empowers students to excel. I graduated with my Bachelors degree in Human Development & Family Studies from Indiana University with minors in Chemistry and Psychology. After, I completed my Masters in Medical Science from University of North Texas Health Science Center. My specialties include Algebra, Anatomy & Physiology, and various levels of Science, including examination preparation for AP exams and Step/Level board exams, where I employ interactive teaching methods to engage students and make complex concepts accessible. I believe in tailoring my approach to meet individual learning styles, ensuring that every student feels confident and motivated. My background in Human Development and Family Studies informs my understanding of student needs, allowing me to connect on a personal level. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy exploring new educational resources and engaging in creative activities, which I find enrich my teaching practice.

I have a Bachelor's in Biomedical Physiology from Simon Fraser University and currently pursuing my Doctorate in Medicine at the University of British Columbia. I have over 10 years of tutoring experience. I specialize in Anatomy and Physiology, High School Chemistry and Physics, and various levels of Mathematics, including Pre-Calculus and Trigonometry. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel motivated to ask questions and delve deeply into the subject matter. I tailor my approach to address each student's unique learning style, fostering confidence and academic achievement. My passion for teaching is further enriched by my love for cycling, running, hiking and exploring the natural world, which allows me to incorporate real-world examples into my lessons, making complex concepts more relatable and understandable.

I love to learn and enjoy sharing that knowledge with others. I think each individual learns differently and l strive to help and adhere to whatever learning style works best! I have an undergraduate degree in both Human Kinetics and Nursing and am very passionate about all things anatomy and physiology. I work full time as a registered nurse at the Hospital for Sick Children and have a background in pharmacy as I was a pharmacy technician for many years. I also enjoy numbers and thrived in math in high school. In my spare time, I enjoy working out and sudoku puzzles! Please feel free to reach out. :)

I am a graduate of Yale University. I received a Bachelor of Arts in Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology and two advanced language certificates in Spanish and Italian. A major focus of mine, throughout my undergraduate career and to the present, is to create opportunities to empower and educate people by making them aware of resources available to them and leading efforts to make them more accessible. Through the power of teaching, interpreting, translating and advising I've been able to help individuals make use of every resource available to them and equip them with the tools needed to become a source of instruction and support for others. While I enjoy anything from history to philosophy, my true passion lies in biology, medicine and foreign languages. I find that these subjects compliment each other when coupled together. Through the simplification of language and concepts and the ability to make such content available to more people in their own language it is possible to create a more equitable and welcoming environment in fields that can be intimidating for many people. I aspire to follow a similar philosophy while connecting with students by creating a welcoming atmosphere and attending to their specific needs and goals so that their success and ability to help themselves and be resourceful extends long beyond our tutoring session and in many areas of their life. I find helping others and making their journey a little easier than mine to be very fulfilling and I cannot think of a better way to pave my way to my eventual goal of becoming a cardiologist. There is always something new to learn and finding the right approach is key because we all operate differently but it is possible to overcome obstacles and gain a deeper appreciation for a subject with the right instruction and approach to learning. One of my favorite things to do is to learn from others whether that's a random person at my local coffee shop or a citizen of a different state or country when I have the opportunity to travel. I also like reading (book suggestions are always appreciated), running, lifting, volunteering and I don't mind occasionally losing some sleep to go see my favorite artists play in concerts.

My name is Selin Yalcin and I am thrilled to be your Tutor. I am an enthusiastic and motivated individual who loves to help teach students in grades K-12 while acting as a coach to advise and maximize the students' learning gains and build their self-confidence. I am a graduate of Stony Brook University with a bachelor's degree in both Biology and Human Evolutionary Biology and am currently a student in Boston University's Master's Anatomy Program with a teaching module. I graduated with honors distinction and also worked as a tutor in a learning center. I am driven but also compassionate toward students. As a result of my work in the learning center, I am used to effectively communicating with a student to identify any gaps in their skill or knowledge and how to resolve issues. I am able to teach a variety of STEM subjects such as Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Living Environment, Biology, Chemistry, and Anatomy. I am also experienced in teaching the math portion of both the SAT and ACT, one of my former students scored a 1520 on their SAT.

I am here to help you understand the concepts brought before you in class and to improve your grasp on the knowledge that must be mastered in the courses that you are in. I will do anything and everything in my power to help the student succeed in his/her course, and I guarantee success in those courses with my assistance. I personalize all lesson plans according to each student, and will work with them to find the best method of teaching to help them obtain a better grasp on the topics presented. I look forward to working with you students to help you succeed!

I am currently attending University of Wisconsin Madison, and expect to have a B.S. in neurobiology in 2024. I am most passionate about science, math, and literature. I believe education is always opportunity to grow in life, and seeking help to better understand educational concepts is a great way to boost confidence and strengthen the understanding of topics. I know different people have different learning methods, and I would tutor according to whichever method fits best for the student. There is nothing better than watching someone have an "ah ha!" moment! I look forward to working with new students.
