Hello! I’m Dr. V, a passionate and experienced educator with a PhD in Plant Molecular Biology and a B.S. in Botany. With over 10 years of research and teaching experience, I specialize in plant biology, molecular biology, and various aspects of botany. I’ve had the privilege of teaching both undergraduate and graduate students, mentoring future scientists, and helping students excel in challenging coursework.

In my academic career, I have received grants for my research and awards for my academic performance. These experiences have honed my ability to explain complex concepts clearly and engagingly, while fostering a love for plant science in my students.

Subjects I Specialize In:

Plant Molecular Biology
Botany & Plant Physiology
Plant Genomics
Cell Biology & Biochemistry
Environmental Biology
Plant Genetics
Laboratory Techniques in Plant Science
Research Methodology and Scientific Writing
Teaching Approach:

My teaching style is interactive, personalized, and rooted in real-world applications. I believe in a hands-on approach where students not only grasp theoretical concepts but also understand how to apply them in practical settings. I encourage questions, critical thinking, and independent problem-solving, creating an environment where students feel confident in their ability to tackle any topic, no matter how challenging.

Whether you need help with exam prep, lab reports, or a deep dive into molecular techniques, I tailor each session to fit your unique learning needs and goals. I use a mix of visual aids, real-life examples, and interactive problem-solving to ensure that learning is both effective and enjoyable.

Policies:
Cancellation Policy: I ask for at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule a lesson. This allows me to accommodate other students who may need help.
Lesson Preparation: I encourage students to come prepared with specific questions or topics they want to focus on during each session.

Approved Subjects

Botany

Botany

With a B.S. in Botany and a specialized focus in cellular, molecular, and genomic plant biology, I bring a deep understanding of plant systems at every level—from the molecular to the ecological. My research experience spans multiple plant species, where I’ve explored everything from plant genetics to environmental interactions. I've had the unique opportunity to intern in the Amazon rainforest, gaining hands-on knowledge of tropical ecosystems, and have also worked at botanic gardens, contributing to plant conservation and education efforts. In my free time, I indulge my passion for foraging and plant identification, further deepening my connection to the natural world. Whether you’re looking to explore plant biology at a cellular level or learn more about practical applications like foraging, I’m here to guide you on your botanical journey!
Genetics

Genetics

With a strong background in genetics research, I have worked extensively on plant breeding projects aimed at improving traits like fertility and pathogen resistance. My experience includes breeding mint varieties for enhanced fertility traits and developing sorghum lines with improved resistance to various pathogens. Whether you're looking to understand the genetic principles behind plant breeding or need help with more specific research techniques, I can guide you through the complexities of genetics in plant systems.
