I am taking an academic break before enter an accelerated PharmD program. I graduated from BHCC in Boston this May. I came to US in 2014 from Ural Mountains in Russia. Being there, I have finished strong lyceum with extra mathematical classes including geometry, solid geometry, trigonometry and calculus. I am a very helpful math tutor at my college, not only because I enjoy solving different kinds of mathematical problems, but because coming from overseas I know many different ways to explain and approach students' problems. Mathematics is a language of science. After I learned this language pretty well, I decided to use it for my future education. My goal for coming years is gaining biotechnology knowledge which includes biology, chemistry and physics. From the college I master new procedures, laboratory techniques daily; I hope to add those subjects to my tutoring in the future. I want to be a part of Varsity Tutors to gain knowledge not only from the college. Working with people from different backgrounds allows to exchange experiences quickly and use new information for own benefits. Back in high-school, my private chemistry teacher decided to open a school for gifted children 4 years ago. She hired me as her assistant to the school, where I created presentations for students to explain organic chemistry concepts. With a bit of motivation I can explain functional groups, isomeric structures again. Before knowing language of mathematics, I was taught Russian. Many people in my life have cultivated big love to Russian language and literature. That is why I wrote and defended regionally my first scientific project about paronomasia as a problem of modern language. Together with the head of the Russian department at my school, I created the first local newspapers among students and teachers in my city. I am still publishing diverse articles there to speak with students about current problems they are afraid to speak about themselves. If some of your students have interest in learning Russian language, I assure to teach them the best Russian preserving its spirituality and beauty.
