Hello!

My name is Dorothy. I graduated with a B.S. in Biochemistry with high distinction and biochemistry honors. I took a gap year and during that time, I took PhD Pharmacology courses for fun. Currently, I am in medical school.

I have been a private tutor since 2006. I have worked as a tutor at a Math and Reading learning center for two years and I have worked as a science supplemental Instructor at the university I attended. I know that I am an effective tutor because I am able to convey information in many different ways so that students have the opportunity to understand a subject from different viewpoints. I feel that this is necessary because when students are able to tackle a question in more than one way, they are able to analyze and think "outside the box."

In my opinion, life is all about learning and self-improvement. I want to be able to help students realize that they have what it takes to reach their potential and be the best that they can be!

Chinese

I have been speaking Cantonese all my life. I have took three years of high school mandarin, which allowed me to waive my language requirement in college. In addition, I went to Chinese school for two years in middle school. I am familiar with the stroke patterns of Chinese characters, which may allow me to teach students how to write Chinese characters. Note: Chinese characters do not change with different Chinese dialects.
