I have a year of experience instructing students at the collegiate level. My class sizes have been small at 10-13 students, so my personal teaching style caters towards meeting a student's individual needs. I have ample experience tutoring and teaching one-on-one between peers and teaching ESL online. I am a recent college graduate, so I remember very well the process of learning new material. My 4 year degree was earned at Grand Valley State University where I majored in Biomedical Science. This degree drew upon many disciplines where I have consequently gained a holistic and integrative understanding of the sciences. When it comes to turoring, I strongly believe in not just teaching the "whats", but also the "whys". I have found that using real world comparisons and a mixture of visual examples makes the material relatable and retainable. My goal as a tutor is not just to help you get over a few rough patches, but to build upon your critical thinking and analysis skills. I believe that the process of learning is more than just mastering material: it's mastering a way to conquer new challenges and obstacles in your path.

I have many interests and hobbies besides teaching and tutoring. I am a huge soccer fan and playing guitar is a regular hobby of mine. I also am am an avid traveler and have lived overseas to study abroad! I also love to keep furthering my own education by reading books and learning languages.
