About Me

I am planning on obtaining a BS in Integrative Neuroscience upon graduation and continuing onto medical school or graduate school for Neuropharmacology. I have also tutored college students in general Chemistry. I love tutoring pretty much any type of high school math as I find math fun in general. I particularly like tutoring Algebra and Trigonometry best because I enjoy analyzing different types of functions and how to manipulate them. In addition, I also have a passion for Biology and Chemistry and after taking Organic Chemistry, my appreciation for these subjects has grown immensely. I have had not as much experience tutoring in science as I have had in math, but I welcome the opportunity to be able to tutor new students in the subjects I love. When tutoring students, I like to take a problem solving based approach as I find that this is the best way for students to be exposed to and understand new material. I like to break concepts down so that my students really understand what is going on instead of simply memorizing facts. Outside of academics, I enjoy running, lifting weights, cooking, and reading medical/psychology articles as well as graphic novels.

Q&A with Joshua

I believe that a student should really understand why something works instead of simply memorizing it. Understanding builds confidence, and makes the student feel more comfortable with the topic and more capable to apply the relevant information in different settings. In addition, I want to expose my students to as many approaches as possible when solving a problem in math and sciences.
