Phd Student & Expert Tutor in Neuroscience and Psychology Topics

Jenna H.

I am a PhD student in Clinical Psychology with a strong academic foundation and a passion for teaching. I graduated summa cum laude with a degree in Neuroscience and minors in both Philosophy and Psychology. In addition to my academic background, I am also a certified yoga teacher and have been teaching for over six years in both classroom and small-group settings, as well as one-on-one and online instruction. These experiences have strengthened my ability to meet students where they are, adapt to different learning styles, and foster both confidence and curiosity.

My tutoring and teaching journey began in college, where I tutored neuroscience and organic chemistry for two years and served as a peer-led team learning leader for organic chemistry. I also worked as a Teaching Assistant for neuroanatomy, leading review sessions and helping students master challenging material. More recently, I taught research methods and statistics at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs for two years, where I worked with undergraduate students in classroom, group, and individual settings. Across these experiences, I have taught students at different stages of their education, from introductory to advanced coursework.

My teaching approach emphasizes patience, clarity, and connection. I believe in breaking down complex material into manageable steps, using examples and practice to strengthen conceptual understanding. Whether students are studying introductory psychology, advanced neuroscience topics like neuroanatomy or electrophysiology, or the foundations of statistics and research design, my goal is to create an engaging and supportive environment that builds both knowledge and confidence. With a diverse background spanning neuroscience, psychology, biology, and statistics, I am equipped to help students succeed across a wide range of academic areas.
