My name is Shafiq, and I graduated with a Master's Degree in Biological Sciences from Washington University in St. Louis with a GPA of 3.9. I was named to the Dean's List multiple semesters both in undergraduate and graduate school and received multiple merit based scholarships. My interest in tutoring started ever since I was in high school when I would tutor fellow classmates who were struggling during my free period. I continued tutoring throughout undergraduate and graduate school as teaching others brought me joy.
In terms of tutoring experience, I have a background that spans both classroom, online, one-on-one settings in the St. Louis Region. Over the past 7 years, I have been engaged in tutoring students across different age groups ranging from middle school to college. I have experience tutoring in subjects such Biology, Chemistry, Psychology, Math, and English. For example, I tutored college-leveled Calculus I, Algebra, and Biology I and II. My commitment to education extends beyond academia, as I have volunteered as a Schoolroom tutor at Children's Hospital here in St. Louis to assist hospitalized patients in schoolwork. This volunteer experience has allowed me to develop effective communication skills and adapt my teaching strategies to diverse learners. My teaching approach involves tailoring the content to the specific needs and learning styles of my students. This personalized approach not only ensures a deeper understanding of the subject matter but also fosters a positive and engaging learning environment.
My educational background, coupled with my extensive tutoring experience, positions me as a qualified tutor. I am confident in my ability to communicate complex concepts effectively, fostering a comprehensive understanding of differing subjects among my students. I would love to help you better grasp all the phases of meiosis, solve that one differential equation, review kinematic equations, or even review your personal statement for graduate school. I look forward to working with you!
