Greetings!
Thank you for looking at my page. I've recently graduated from Santa Clara University with a Biochemistry degree. While I was obtaining it, I spent many hours helping my fellow students understand the material we learned in class. I would also love explaining the science I had learned to my friends. (Teaching them about subjects like organic chemistry or physiology to name a few.)
However, it takes more than just knowledge to be a good tutor. As an teacher, I am friendly, patient and encouraging to those learning about a subject. I take care to ensure understanding through quizzes, and by
conversing with the student about the subject. I also am talented at breaking down difficult material and explaining it in a way easy to understand, tailored to the level the student is at. As I've always said,
"If you can't explain it to an intelligent 12 year old, then you don't really understand it"
I explain to my students because I understand the material and how to help them understand it.
Thank you again for your consideration, and I hope to hear from you soon.
