Dental student with DAT success, multiple dental school acceptanc

Seema P.

I hold a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Pittsburgh and am currently a dental student, which gives me a strong academic foundation in science, math, and health-related subjects. My education has emphasized analytical thinking, problem-solving, and clear communication, all of which are essential for effective tutoring. I have also taken the DAT and gained acceptance to multiple dental schools, further demonstrating my mastery of core subjects such as biology, chemistry, and quantitative reasoning. My academic achievements, including being on the Dean’s List and receiving multiple scholarships, reflect my commitment to excellence in learning and teaching

I have direct tutoring and teaching experience in both one-on-one and small group settings. I previously worked as a tutor at the Mercer County Adult Education Center, where I supported students of varying ages and academic backgrounds by creating individualized lesson plans and adapting instruction to different learning styles. In this role, I focused on building foundational skills, increasing confidence, and helping learners overcome academic challenges in a supportive environment. I also guided new tutors by sharing effective teaching strategies and resources, which strengthened my ability to explain concepts clearly and patiently

In addition, I served as a teaching assistant at the University of Pittsburgh, where I worked with college-aged students in a classroom and office-hour setting. I led exam review sessions, clarified complex course material, and supported students during recitations and assessments. These experiences, combined with my ongoing dental education and research background, allow me to tutor subjects such as math, science, and test preparation with both depth and practical insight. I strive to help students not only understand the material, but also develop effective study strategies and long-term academic confidence
