I am currently a student at the University of California, San Diego, maintaining a 3.877 GPA and recognized on the Provost Honors List for multiple consecutive quarters. My academic foundation is strong across the sciences and humanities, bolstered by my acceptance into the Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth program for both English and Math. In high school, I achieved the National AP Scholar Award with Distinction, excelled in numerous AP courses, and earned top placements in Science Olympiad events such as Disease Detectives and Cell Biology. These achievements reflect both depth of subject knowledge and a proven ability to master complex material.
My teaching and tutoring approach is grounded in clarity, patience, and adaptability. I have experience guiding peers and younger students in scientific concepts, anatomy, and problem-solving, drawing on methods like breaking down complex ideas into step-by-step explanations, using real-world examples, and reinforcing learning through active recall. My volunteer work at Scripps Green Hospital has honed my communication skills and empathy, enabling me to connect with learners of different ages and backgrounds. Additionally, my hands-on laboratory and EMT experience allows me to offer practical insights in biology, anatomy, and health sciences, making lessons both engaging and applicable.
I have worked with learners ranging from middle school students to college peers, in both structured and informal settings. Whether in a one-on-one mentoring scenario, a collaborative group environment, or during volunteer and academic competitions, I focus on building confidence and understanding. My combination of high academic achievement, STEM competition success, real-world medical exposure, and experience adapting explanations to different learning levels uniquely positions me to help students excel in their chosen subjects.
