...not only learned physics, chemistry and biology, but I also learned to be strategic with my time, and get the most out of my classes and homework. Upon completing the premedical program with flying colors I took the MCAT in mid July 2015. As someone who struggled with math and science in high school, but excelled in these same areas with the application of organization and effort, I feel confident in my ability to guide...

Getting students to be successful is...

...and even math covered on standardized testing such as the ACT/SAT. Aside from tutoring many students over several years, I have also worked as an English teaching assistant on a Fulbright grant in Sri Lanka.

...from watching someone learn to articulate themselves and effectively present ideas that automatically become bigger once shared; you can be the smartest scientist on the planet, but, if you can't write down your cure for cancer in an understandable way, everyone is the lesser for it. I think the ability to write a strong essay or speech not only reflects a solid grasp of a particular subject and competent research, it also suggests the writer...

Thanks to one-on-one help in middle and high school, I not only achieved stronger grades/test scores, but gained the confidence I will continue to use even beyond graduate school. I hope to give others the same invaluable tool set!... The ways I've always preferred to learn myself are typically the ways I teach. Once it seems like a student has a pretty strong understanding of a subject, I like to play competitive or timed games. It...
