I love learning and enjoyed the amazing breadth and depth of the classes I took in college. I can see why science is intimidating and sometimes feels unapproachable, but my hope is that all students can find aspects of science they get excited about and that I can be a tool to get there, hence why I like to TA and tutor! Aside from my TAing experience, I have had lots of practice informally teaching as the oldest sibling in my family and as an upperclassman on the track team.
