I am a chemist from Germany and got married in Dallas in 2019. It was a big step and a lot of change. Sometimes the thought about it overwhelmed me but I knew: If I want to marry this woman, I have to start with small steps to be prepared for this "one big step". Similar to exams in school. You might be overwhelmed thinking about your next or final exams. But here is the deal: Just do it. Let us learn together!

I'm originally from San Diego, but I moved to Houston in 2007 to attend Rice University. I graduated from Rice in 2011 as a pre-med student with a degree in the environmental sciences and spent the last year working in Honduras at a hospital. In Honduras, I was social worker who organized activities for the children in the cancer ward. I returned to Houston at the end of June to work as a Laboratory Technician at Rice University.

I am a biologist, graduate from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County. During my undergraduate coursework, I was a tutor for developmental biology, embryology. After graduation, I went to medical schools where I studied medical sciences for a decade. I worked in pathology labs, chemistry and biology labs, histology and physiology labs. I am very much familiar with how the body works, mammalian cell cultures, diseases, etiology and biological causes of disease.

I am most passionate about biology and chemistry. I am a firm proponent of education, believing it to be absolutely necessary for an improved quality of life, and I try to impart this appreciation to all of my students.

I am a certified bilingual veteran educator looking to support and champion learning and personal growth in students that need and desire it.

I am strongly committed to bringing students to mastery. To accomplish this, I thought it was important that I am trained and educated extensively in this field. This is why I have obtained not only a Bachelor's degree in education, but I have obtained a Master's degree as well. Even with the most thorough training, mastering academics cannot be achieved without creating a welcoming space for learning friends.

I'm Alyssa! I graduated from Texas Christian University in 2021 with a Bachelor's degree in Kinesiology and a minor in Psychology (with Honors and a 4.0 GPA!). I am a current Doctorate of Physical Therapy student at Texas Woman's University, continuing my education in Kinesiology and related subjects.

I am a responsive and talented educator offering tutoring to middle school, high school, and undergraduate students in the Humanities. I am a certified teacher with nearly 15 years of classroom teaching and tutoring experience and a Master's in Secondary Education. My favorite subjects to tutor are World History, U.S. History, Reading, Writing, Literature, and Spanish I. I always make learning relevant to my students' lives and approach each lesson as a shared learning experience for us both.

I am very excited to share my experience with you, and I hope to have the chance to meet with you.

I am a huge component of constant feedback. A session may be wasted if feedback is only provided in the last five minutes. For this reason, I would help students stay motivated by maintaining a conversation over the material and relating to other interesting aspects of their life.
