As an honors engineering student at NCSU with over 3 years of tutoring experience in various subjects, I've had the privilege of implementing creative instructional strategies. These efforts contributed to a 24% increase in students' cumulative SAT scores and a 15% improvement in AP Biology and AP Computer Science scores. I am genuinely dedicated to excelling in a STEM-related field and have been fortunate to be involved in founding and directing the international computer science competition, "OHacksIO," which brought together over 300 participants from six countries.
