I bring a strong foundation in both teaching and science, with experience that bridges academic research and one-on-one mentorship. My background as a scientist has given me not only subject-matter expertise in biology, chemistry, and related disciplines, but also the ability to break down complex concepts into clear, approachable explanations. Throughout my academic and professional journey, I have consistently sought out opportunities to mentor, teach, and support learners at various levels.

As a researcher in cell and gene therapy, I have worked extensively with advanced concepts in molecular biology, genetics, and biotechnology. These roles required me to train colleagues and junior team members on experimental techniques, data analysis, and critical thinking skills. I also frequently presented findings to both scientific and non-scientific audiences, sharpening my ability to adapt explanations to different levels of understanding. My teaching style emphasizes clarity, patience, and real-world application—connecting theory to practice so that learners not only retain knowledge but also understand its relevance.

In addition to my scientific expertise, I have experience tutoring students in math and science subjects, supporting them in developing problem-solving strategies, study habits, and confidence in their abilities. I know that each student learns differently, and I take pride in tailoring my approach to individual needs, whether through visual aids, practice exercises, or breaking topics into smaller steps.

What excites me most about tutoring is the opportunity to share knowledge while also empowering students to become independent learners. I believe education should not just prepare students to perform well on exams, but also to think critically, ask meaningful questions, and apply what they learn in creative ways. With my combined background in science and education, I am well-prepared to help students achieve their academic goals.

Approved Subjects

Genetics

Genetics

I am a scientist specializing in cell and gene therapy with a strong background in molecular biology, genetics, and biotechnology. My work has involved designing and conducting experiments, analyzing genetic data, and mentoring junior researchers in laboratory techniques and critical thinking. I have experience explaining complex scientific concepts in clear and accessible ways, whether to students, colleagues, or non-scientific audiences. With this blend of research expertise and teaching experience, I help students not only master genetics but also build confidence in applying their knowledge to real-world problems.
Neuroscience

Neuroscience

I have a strong background in neuroscience through my research in cell and gene therapy, where I study how genetic modifications affect cellular behavior and function. My training has included advanced coursework and hands-on research related to neurobiology, molecular pathways, and disease mechanisms. I have also mentored students and colleagues, guiding them through scientific concepts, data interpretation, and experimental design. I excel at making neuroscience approachable by connecting abstract concepts to real-world applications, helping students build both confidence and curiosity in the subject.
