With a solid educational foundation comprising a BS in Bioinformatics with a minor in Computer Science and my current pursuit of a PhD in Evolutionary Biology, I bring a diverse range of knowledge to tutoring. Over the past 8 years, I've successfully tutored students across various subjects, including History, Math, English, Writing, Science, and Computer Science. My approach is centered on empowering students to acquire the tools and skills necessary for independent learning.

Having worked with students aged 10 to 25, my teaching experience spans a broad spectrum, encompassing diverse age groups and learning styles. My commitment to making learning enjoyable is reflected in my efforts to infuse fun and engagement into every topic. As I aspire to become a university professor, my passion for helping others love learning is evident in my teaching philosophy. I firmly believe in tailoring my approach to the unique pace and needs of each student, fostering a positive and encouraging learning environment.

A notable example of my tutoring success involves guiding a student through a challenging computer science class, collaborating on projects and problem-solving. Through our dedicated efforts, the student not only navigated the complexities of the course but also achieved an impressive grade of A, showcasing the effectiveness of my approach in building confidence and competence.

I want to benefit the students as much as possible and thereby welcome any resources or suggestions that the students or parents wish to provide. I respond promptly and am very each to reach. Please reach out to schedule a lesson or with any other questions.

Approved Subjects

Biology

Biology

I am currently a PhD student in computational & evolutionary biology. I graduated with an undergraduate degree in bioinformatics and love to teach science.
C++

C++

I have a degree in Computer Science and am currently pursuing my PhD in computational biology. I have taken several courses and completed several projects in C++.
Computer Science

Computer Science

I earned a computer science degree from my undergraduate university and am currently in my PhD for computational biology. With over 4 years experience with computer science and 2 years teaching the subject, I am confident in my abilities to help others understand concepts that may be difficult for them to grasp.
CSS

CSS

I worked as a front-end software engineer for 3 years, collaborating on projects with the design team, and gained a comprehensive knowledge of the world in web design. I used javascript, CSS, and react to design and build websites. I maintained primarily the front-end and mastered technical skills such as API calls and integrations with the back-end.
Flute

I love music and want to help others find love for it too!
Genetics

Genetics

I’m a PhD student in evolutionary biology with a strong focus on genetics. My research explores how genetic variation affects fitness in small populations, and I regularly use genomic data and computational tools to study inheritance and evolutionary history. I’ve taught and tutored genetics at the college level and love helping students break down complex topics into clear, understandable ideas. Whether you’re prepping for a test or diving deep into genetics, I’m here to help!
Python

Python

I have extensive experience with Python, both academically and professionally. As a bioinformatics graduate and PhD student in computational biology, I have utilized Python for data analysis, statistical modeling, and bioinformatics research. My work includes developing efficient algorithms and implementing machine learning techniques.

Patient and kind tutor

Raya was so patient and kind and helped lower my anxiety about a big machine learning project that I have to do for class by breaking it up into smaller chunks and forming a plan/outline. Looking forward to working with her more!!
