I am a first-year Biomedical Engineering student at the New Jersey Institute of Technology with a strong background in mathematics, science, standardized test preparation, and STEM education. I graduated from Daphne High School with a 34 ACT score, was a National Merit Semifinalist and AP Scholar with Distinction, and completed college-level coursework with a 4.0 GPA through Coastal Alabama Community College.
I have previous experience tutoring students in SAT preparation, Precalculus, and Chemistry. Through Schoolhouse, I worked one-on-one with students preparing for the SAT, AP Precalculus, and AP Chemistry exams, and I developed accelerated four-week bootcamps covering STEM subjects. I have also tutored and mentored students in STEM and health-related subjects through the STEM-E Youth Career Development Center, working mostly with underrepresented students.
My approach to tutoring is individualized and focused on understanding and applying rather than memorization. I first identify where and why a student is struggling, then break difficult concepts into smaller steps and connect them to examples that make the material easier to visualize and apply. I truly believe that the key to learning material is to make it work for you. For example, if you are a tactile learner, find a physical example of the topic. For test preparation, I emphasize and teach content mastery and problem-solving strategies so students can approach unfamiliar questions confidently.
My background as an EMT and Advanced EMT also gives me a strong foundation in biology, chemistry, and health sciences, while my Biomedical Engineering studies at NJIT are further developing my skills in mathematics, physics, and engineering. I am particularly qualified to tutor middle and high school students in mathematics and science, as well as students preparing for the SAT, AP-level STEM, and NREMT courses.
