Teaching Style

My Method: - Personalized note sheets that serve as guidelines for tutoring session. Each is catered to the needs of the student based on a list of high-importance topics that the student sends me before the session. - Emphasis on memory tactics and connecting small details to the overall high-yield framework for the course, with complimentary Anki decks provided for any basic science tutoring. - Retention testing at the end of each section before moving on to the next topic in the personalized guideline for the session.
