B.Sc. in Biology with 10 Years Exp. Specializing in STEM and Test Prep

I am a graduate of Oregon State University with a B.Sc. in Biology and I'm currently working as a medical assistant to fulfill requirements for applications to medical school. I have three years of experience as a lab technician in pharmaceutical research and development and I have been tutoring since 2011. During these past 10 years, I've tutored for grades spanning 1st to 4th-year college and I am the founder and lead tutor at Central Oregon Tutoring, a tutoring agency I founded that connects Central Oregon students with the highest quality academic mentorship available. We also use a unique small group learning model that lowers the cost of private tutoring by up to 70% per student for a group size of five. Subjects I have tutored include Pre-Algebra and Algebra (I and II), Geometry, Pre-Calc and Calculus, Probability and Statistics, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Biochemistry, Biology, Microbiology, Genetics, Reading, Writing, and standardized test prep, among others. When starting out with a new student I will sit down and talk about any specific problem areas in your classes to see which aspects of your learning should be emphasized most during our sessions. Additionally, I dedicate 1-2 hr a week per student to making study materials and upcoming test or quiz prep problem sets. All of the study materials I create will be culled directly from content discussed in a student's class so your time will be spent focusing on the material most relevant to your learning.

I was born in Central Texas where I lived for the first 12 years of my life before moving to Bend, OR where I have spent the last 20 years. Some of my hobbies include basketball, camping, hiking, and most outdoor activities, typical Bend-ite stuff! Please take a look at my profile and if I sound like a good fit send me a message, I look forward to working with you!
