About Joan


Bio

Hello, my name is Joan! I received my BS from Emory University with a major in Chemistry, minor in Chinese, and a cumulative GPA of 3.83. During my time at Emory, I completed an honors program that conferred me high honors in Chemistry. I then received my Ph.D. in Pharmaceutics from the University of Minnesota with a cumulative GPA of 3.90. Thus, my specialty is in Chemistry and Biology.

Hello, my name is Joan! I received my BS from Emory University with a major in Chemistry, minor in Chinese, and a cumulative GPA of 3.83. During my time at Emory, I completed an honors program that conferred me high honors in Chemistry. I then received my Ph.D. in Pharmaceutics from the University of Minnesota with a cumulative GPA of 3.90. Thus, my specialty is in Chemistry and Biology.

Throughout my academic career, even as far back as high school, I have provided scheduled tutoring sessions for students as part of my programs requirements. I aim to help students not just do well on tests but to truly understand the material that they are learning, and how it can relate to their day-to-day life. I will work together with you to build all the necessary connections between the information in your head, so that you will be well-equipped to tackle any problem in front of you.

For us to best succeed, please come to each session with your notes ready and your textbook open. Each classroom is different, so it would help for me to understand that level that you are at so I can tailor my tutoring session accordingly. I will go through the material with you at a pace that best suits you, and I will make sure that you come away knowing more than you did before. So, students and parents, please feel free to contact me with any additional questions or to schedule a tutoring session. Thank you.
