I received my B.S. in Microbiology from Purdue University in 2014, and am now studying to obtain my PhD in the same subject from Georgia Institute of Technology. I have a passion for math and science, and am looking to share that passion with those I tutor. While at Purdue, I had much informal tutoring experience helping my classmates study for exams. In my first year at Georgia Tech, I have had the wonderful opportunity to work one on one with two different undergraduate students in the lab. I am adept at changing my teaching style to match someone's level of understanding in a particular subject. I am a huge proponent of higher education and believe everyone should have the opportunity to seek an advanced degree. I really enjoy helping people learn new things and to think more critically about the world around them. While I can tutor in math and sciences as well as ACT and GRE test prep, my favorite subject to tutor would have to be Biology, because it is my favorite subject and the one I am currently studying. I like to make sure that those I work with have a sound understanding of the concepts and are able to apply those concepts to answer diverse sets of questions. No matter the subject I tutor, my job is to make you a better problem solver, a skill that will aid you in any facet of your life. I find learning and discovery very exciting, and have a ton of stake in the success of those I tutor. When I'm not tutoring or doing research in the lab, I enjoy exercising and reading comics.
