Experience Summary
After I completed my degree in psychology from the University of Redlands I became a substitute teacher for a year before I decided to go back to school and pursue a career in medicine. I also was an American Reads Tutor in college working with special needs elementary students. I finished by post-baccalaureate Pre-Health Certificate with a GPA of 3.99. The courses included: calculus, general chemistry, genetics and molecular biology, cell biology, microbiology, biochemistry, organic chemistry and physics. I tutored genetics and physics within my program. I have completed the MCAT and have extensive knowledges of the concepts of the sciences.
Teaching Style
I have always had a passion for teaching and hope to continue teaching in academic sciences. I enjoy working with children and young adults sharing my passion for learning. I believe the best way to learn is through trial and error and I encourage my students to attempt to solve problems before we attempt to find the answer. I believe that students learn best in an encouraging environment and providing this for them will give them the best chance at success. As a student who is constantly continuing my education I can relate to the issues my students have in grasping and conquering issues. I also believe that practice is the best way to master material and encourage my students to practice, practice and practice.
