I hold a BS in Marine Biology and MS in Bioinformatics concentration in Data Analytics. I have a strong foundation spanning advanced mathematics, natural sciences, scientific research methodology, data analytic programming, and query writing for relational databases. I have tutored individuals during my high school, undergraduate, and graduate education with students of varying ages (5-65). Additionally, I have been employed as a trainer for projects and functional on-site supervisor to instruct team members in topics related to SOPs, software, project knowledge, and task performance.
I have taught individuals in all primary education subjects but I have a stronger mathematics and life science coursework and employment background. In high school I took honors and AP classes. My lowest AP exam scores were 3s, but I achieved a Calculus BC score of 4 with a Calculus AB subscore of 5. In undergraduate, took full series subject coursework with all available laboratory applications even when not required for my degree. I maintained near maximum quarterly unit enrollment at 17 units while also employed full time and an active officer for 2 clubs. I recently completed my master’s with a 3.88 GPA. During my MS program, my professor extended a TA employment opportunity and commendation for top performance in their Bioinformatics for Statistics course that utilizes R and calculus. I was employed for 3 semesters where I gained experience adapting complex subject content for individuals that largely varied in backgrounds related to math, science, native language, age, work experience, and career goals.
My tutoring style involves assessing a person’s learning preferences and knowledge base to adapt material to best promote understanding and build confidence. While also keeping a student’s mental state and physical capacity in mind for subject learning. I believe demonstrating real world impact, relating material to a person’s interests, and encouraging a healthy life balance helps motivate student learning.
