Hi, I'm a medical student at LSU SoM working towards my M.D. degree. I have successfully completed courses including Gross Anatomy (w/ dissection lab), Medical Biochemistry, Medical Physiology, Biostats/Epidemiology, and many others. During my undergraduate years, I also challenged myself by taking plenty of upper level/rigorous courses -- these courses included Anatomy & Physiology (A&P), Biochemistry I, Biochemistry II, Vertebrate Physiology, Molecular Biology, Embryology, Histology,...
Hi, I'm a medical student at LSU SoM working towards my M.D. degree. I have successfully completed courses including Gross Anatomy (w/ dissection lab), Medical Biochemistry, Medical Physiology, Biostats/Epidemiology, and many others. During my undergraduate years, I also challenged myself by taking plenty of upper level/rigorous courses -- these courses included Anatomy & Physiology (A&P), Biochemistry I, Biochemistry II, Vertebrate Physiology, Molecular Biology, Embryology, Histology, Genetics, and Cell & Molecular Bio. Earning an "A" average in the aforementioned courses, I was awarded with the 'Biological Sciences Achievement Award,' at the end of my senior year. I'm grateful to have graduated with Magna Cum Laude Honors; completing my B.S. degree in Biology with a minor in Chemistry.
For the next ~2 years, until I started medical school, I went on to gain some truly invaluable clinical experience working as a Medical Assistant. Undoubtedly, I learned so much from that clinical experience, as it not only just further solidify that I was choosing the right career path; it allowed me to finally understand what intrigued me about the field of medicine, and science, as a whole. From the intricacies of the human body, to helping me apply and further integrate my classroom knowledge via a clinical standpoint.
As a tutor, I want to help explain many of those "challenging/complex" topics, in a way that will help you, or your child, truly grasp and retain that information What I find intriguing about teaching, regardless of whichever topic, is finding a way to explain it differently. And by differently, just in a way that topic can actually be understood well; even by one who has brief, if any prior knowledge of it. I always keep in mind what would have helped me learn the same exact subject more efficiently, only if it was explained in "simpler" terms, per se. Because often times, if a topic is overwhelming, more than likely, it can very well be understood if taught from a different perspective.
