My name is Shafiq, and I am a current 2nd year medical student. I was an adjunct professor teaching Fundamentals of Biology to nursing students. I graduated with a Master's Degree in Biological Sciences from Washington University in St. Louis. 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 educating others brought me joy.
In terms of tutoring experience, I have a background that spans both classroom, online, one-on-one settings. Over the past 8 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, Physiology, Chemistry, Psychology, Math, and English. My commitment to education extends beyond academia, as I have volunteered as a Schoolroom Tutor at the Children's Hospital to assist hospitalized patients with their 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, or even review your personal statement for graduate school. I look forward to working with you!
