Skidmore College - BA, Neuroscience
Experience
I began tutoring while working as a lab assistant at Skidmore College. Working in conjunction with the Introduction to Neuroscience course, I'd also tutor students separately if they were interested. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Neuroscience from the school. My major focused on subjects like biology and Spanish, which I tutor in as well, and other areas including psychology and anthropology. I regularly tutor in math, life sciences, essay editing, algebra, and grammar, too.In addition, I worked with the Jumpstart tutoring program from AmeriCorps, helping bilingual elementary and middle school students during the year and in summer school. A Benjamin Franklin quote, "Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn," defines my teaching style. Teaching should be engaging and learning fun. I am also very patient so I can work through frustrations and enable students to embrace their challenges. I will make you laugh if you're frustrated, something my parents and older sisters taught me the importance of.Currently, I live in Tucson, Arizona. I love rock climbing and hiking in my spare time. My love for nature is satisfied time and again where I now reside.
