Therefore, in addition to my GPA, I believe that I would be an excellent contributing member to the Varsity Tutors...

...everyday language, and be understood by someone with no scientific training. If an instructor can explain a complex principle or theory in simple language, that instructor thoroughly understands what they are teaching. I start with this, and introduce terms and jargon later.

It can open-up a whole new...
