Experienced Tutor Specializing in Chemistry, Biology, and Math

Angel L.

Hi, I'm Angel! I'm an undergraduate at UCSD studying Human Biology. I have a few years of experience tutoring middle and high school students in subjects like AP Biology, AP Chemistry, Algebra, and Calculus, as well as essay editing and SAT Prep. I have also worked as an Instructional Assistant/Grader for Genetics and Ecology courses at UCSD, where I held office hours, led discussions, and answered students' questions during class. I have also worked as a Teacher's Assistant for AP Biology for 2 years, setting up and demonstrating labs, checking homework, and answering students' questions about classwork. I have taken AP Biology, Chemistry, and Calculus AB, and am familiar with the test format and strategies to excel on these exams. As a National Merit Finalist, I am also very comfortable with the PSAT and SAT.

I believe that it is very important to conceptually understand why something works and not just to plug in equations, which has helped many of my students to succeed in their classes. I am very flexible with lesson plans to best adapt to an individual student's needs and progress. I want to be the most helpful to my students as possible, so I am open to any suggestions to improve. I will respond to any messages in a timely manner. Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson!
