About Me

I am on the pre-med track planning to apply next year. I have a genuine passion for helping others, whether that be in my future career as a doctor or tutoring! During my years at Oberlin, I was a general chemistry laboratory teaching assistant, as well as a tutor for Bioorganic chemistry. I was inspired to help other students from my own experiences with teaching assistants. Oberlin has a unique program for many of the hard science courses called OWLS in which teaching assistants hold small sessions for extra help or test review. Attending OWLS was one of the best decisions I made for my academic career at Oberlin. Even when I understood the material well, OWLS was a great opportunity to review with classmates, teaching assistants and to get extra practice. I have always been someone who loves studying with peers, because I find talking through the material with others is a great way to ensure you really understand everything. From my experiences, my tutoring style is typically one that is student-focused in order to pinpoint specific gaps in content knowledge or reasoning, rather than lecturing on the material. I really enjoy taking a hands-on approach, whether that be walking through diagrams, creating concept maps or writing out lists, mnemonics or practice questions. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most interested in science, writing and middle school math! I also am extremely passionate about study skills, time management and organization! While school is definitely a huge part of my life, I also enjoy working out, painting and spending time outside. I look forward to working with you!
