About Me

I graduated from the University of Rochester with a B.S. in Biology with Honors in Research and a B.A. in East Asian Studies, along with a minor in Clinical Psychology. I have three years of experience as a Biology II teaching assistant, where I led recitations, ran review sessions, and worked closely with students who needed extra support. I also spent three years as a writing tutor, helping students at all stages of the writing process. One of my favorite parts of tutoring is seeing that "aha" moment when things start to click and students become more confident in their abilities. I can tutor biology, chemistry, English, history, and beginner French or Chinese, as well as standardized test prep for the SAT, ACT, and MCAT. I believe that knowledge should be shared and that teaching future generations is one of the most meaningful ways to make a difference. Every student learns differently, so I focus on being both goal-oriented and flexible. I am constantly adjusting my approach to match each person's learning style during the session. I also like to help students build effective study routines, since I believe strong studying habits are essential to effective learning. Outside of academics, I enjoy cooking, hiking, listening to music, and playing video games.
