Fun Facts
Aside from my studies I enjoy playing basketball, the guitar, and working out at my local gym. I enjoy guitar most of all and I have been playing almost every day for the past 10 years.
About Me
I am a senior biology major at Drexel University. I am applying to medical school this year and I hope to get accepted to a school that can make me the best physician I can be.
Experience
I have been tutoring both my peers and younger students since I was in high school. I was a member of our peer tutoring program in high school for students enrolled in AP courses. I tutored AP Biology, Chemistry, Calculus, and Statistics. In college I have continued to tutor students enrolled in the freshman biology sequence. The sequence covers topics in genetics, cell biology, biochemistry, evolution, physiology, and more.
Approach
I believe that effective tutoring involves paying close attention to how the tutee thinks. Sometimes in larger classes, students aren't able to work one-on-one with instructors to work through new concepts. Tutoring gives the student a unique chance to focus on areas where understanding is lapsing and ask as many questions as possible.

College Algebra Tutoring
Part of the regimen for high school pre-calculus was an intense focus on algebraic manipulation. This led to a better understanding and easier time in the course. I received a 5 (highest score) on my AP Calculus AB exam and received A's in the two calculus courses I took at Drexel.
Microbiology Tutoring
I have taken and received a grade of A in Drexel's core microbiology and microbiology lab courses. In addition, I received an A in a more advanced course called Microbial Pathogenesis which focused on mechanisms of disease for over 30 different microorganisms.
Pre Calculus Tutoring
Part of the regimen for high school pre-calculus was an intense focus on algebraic manipulation. This led to a better understanding and easier time in the course. I received a 5 (highest score) on my AP Calculus AB exam and received A's in the two calculus courses I took at Drexel.
