...Colorado, Boulder. In December of 2014, I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Astrophysics with minors in Computer Science and Physics.

...included calculus, chemistry (AP and introductory), organic chemistry, and analytical chemistry. I particularly enjoy tutoring introductory chemistry because I find that the broad range of topics covered offers many different opportunities to find chemistry examples in everyday life! I think that to love and understand any subject, it's important to see examples of it in everyday activities; it can be very difficult to wrap your head around complex concepts when you're using complex examples, and...

...classroom and in after school programs. This experience was incredibly rewarding, as the evidence of my daily work could be directly observed, and the difference I was making seemed to have a real impact. This opportunity prompted me to continue tutoring. My experience working in a high school showed me how different each student’s ability in any given area can be. The understanding that each student learns differently and therefore requires a different approach was...

...I get particularly excited when it's time to talk science! Everywhere you look is something new end fantastic. I do bring this enthusiasm into session, and default to drawing out participation with questions, (What would happen if we changed this? What does this term mean to you? Why do you think we are learning this?) Learning is an active process, but it certainly shouldn't be a chore; the world is far too exciting to let...

...and outgoing. I believe that tutoring is really an exercise of providing others with the key pieces of insight they need in order to fill the gaps in their knowledge. A lot of time a single reinterpretation of what a student already knows can lead to that "a-ha" moment that makes the subject suddenly click in a very satisfying way. Outside of the academic field I enjoy playing basketball and will play pretty much any...
