Hi, I'm Samali! I am an undergraduate at Emory University on the pre-medical track, double majoring in Neuroscience and Behavioral Biology and Psychology with a focus on Child Development.

I have been tutoring since I was in middle school, starting with being a TA for one of my elementary school teachers, and progressing as a high-school student to tutor in all areas of math up to Pre-calculus, and science subjects including Biology and Chemistry. I have done paid tutoring, tutoring for course credit, and participated as a volunteer tutor. Previously, I was a Committee Member and Mentor in Emory University's Committee Science Health and Diversity Program funded by Winship Cancer Institute, where our program guides middle school students in areas of science, math, and getting involved in related interests.

Although my past official experiences are majority STEM, I am a strong writer and truly enjoy helping students find their own passions and strength in writing as well. These skills can be vital in application development and resume and cover letter building. As a college student now, I actively review high school students College Applications and Essays, finding the core details in these vital essay components that can make the applicant shine if emphasized. I focus on teaching as I edit essays, illuminating key ideas and themes that can carry into students other works as well.

I am comfortable and enthusiastic about tutoring all age groups, ranging in K-12! Please reach out to me for more details if interested. I would be happy to work with individual students on a schedule or process that works best for them, working on individual learning plans with additional notes and guidance!

Essay Writing

I attended a high school with an IB Diploma program, that strengthened my thesis writing ability from a young age. My major in neuroscience and behavioral biology was heavily focused on neuroscience and neuro ethics writing ability. Outside of my courses, through my independent research I have written and presented multiple research projects. I am currently preparing a manuscript for publication.

Easy to Understand, Patient Tutor

I have been working with Sam a little bit over seven months now. Biology was super challenging for me and Sam helped me fully understand the concepts. My grades instantly improved after her help. She makes the subject very easy to comprehend and her teaching methods are very helpful. I recommend her help to anyone who is struggling to understand the topics!

Outstanding tutor

Sam W. is able to break down the terminology and problem solving to provide solutions and strategies that my child was able to comprehend. My daughter left her session feeling less stressed about the formulas regarding her honors geometry.

Great tutor, very patient and takes time to understand the material you are confused about.

Sam went over specific questions I had regarding MCQs and did a great job explaining in detail to me what I was confused on. She also responded very quickly when I let her know about additional questions I wanted to work on and in just one hour all of my questions were answered fully!
