Experienced CRLA Certified Organic Chemistry & Biology Tutor

Christi Y.

Hello! I am a senior at the University of Florida majoring in Microbiology and Cell Science, with minors in Education and Leadership. I am CRLA certified and have six years of tutoring experience. I tutor Anatomy and Physiology, Biology, Microbiology, General Chemistry, and Organic Chemistry for high school and college students.
For the past three years, I have worked as a science tutor at a community college learning center, providing both individual and group tutoring sessions in these subjects. I also serve as an Organic Chemistry and Microbiology Teaching Assistant at the University of Florida, where I teach class sessions, lead review workshops, and hold office hours to support students one on one. These roles have strengthened my ability to explain complex topics clearly, identify common areas of confusion, and adapt my teaching to different learning styles.
My tutoring style is supportive, interactive, and personalized. I understand that science courses can feel overwhelming, so I create a comfortable and judgment-free space where students feel confident asking questions. I break down difficult concepts into manageable steps and focus on helping students understand the “why” behind the material rather than simply memorizing procedures. I also share effective study strategies that improve retention, organization, and exam performance.
I am truly passionate about helping students grow academically and build confidence in their abilities. My goal is not just to help you improve your grade, but to help you genuinely understand the material and feel prepared moving forward. Teaching is something that is very dear to my heart, and I look forward to helping you succeed.
