Exercise is crucial! Keeps the body and mind in tip-top shape :) I've gone from swimming (8 yrs) to running, and now to biking and powerlifting!
About Me
I am currently a junior on the pre-medical tract at boston-university">Boston University majoring in Biology with a specialization in cell biology, molecular biology, and genetics. Currently, my GPA is 3.7, and I have been on the Dean's List for 2 years in a row. After graduation, I hope to attend medical school and become a doctor, and possibly a university professor.
Experience
I've had the opportunity to work with a variety of ages and learning styles. Senior year of high school, I started to boston">tutor middle and high school students one-on-one. Both students and parents alike were happy with their progress. First year of college, I worked with young toddler's in the Jumpstart program. Then last summer, I was employed at an educational institution where I received training and taught general and AP preparatory classes in a classroom setting.
Approach
After years of studying and helping classmates study, I noticed trends that led to differences in academic success. Two of the most important factors are good study skills and critical thinking, both of which can be practiced. Good study skills allow students to make the most of their study time. Critical thinking promotes deep understanding of material which, in contrast to rote memorization, permits students to solve complex problems and sets a strong foundation for future courses.
