Hi, I'm Kristen! I am currently finishing up my Master's Degree in Agricultural Biology as well as a teaching certificate in Extension. I have worked with over 500 students as a university teaching assistant for freshman biology, and my personal teaching philosophy is to help you get set up with a plan of attack, present the material in a way that aligns with your goals, and challenge you with active learning techniques that will help you retain the information you need.

Hi, I'm Kristen! I am currently finishing up my Master's Degree in Agricultural Biology as well as a teaching certificate in Extension.

I love being able to help students have those "aha!" moments and raise their grades.
I have worked with plants and pests professionally for more than ten years, so I am well-versed in terminology and concrete applications. I have experience teaching freshman biology as well as junior-level botany/ecology. My approach involves many real-life examples, unique ways to remember complicated vocabulary, and case studies to help you delve deeper into important life science principles.
I can lend you a constructive eye to help you tease out what you are trying to convey. My strongest skill is helping you identify ways to make your writing flow better while still expressing your personal style through your words. Think of it as putting on the final polish.
If you think we'd be a good fit, send me a message for more information about my availability! I look forward to working with you.
