Hi! I’m Sequoia, a biomedical researcher with a Master of Health Science and experience in both laboratory and community-based health settings. I’ve worked as a research assistant at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, where I regularly train and mentor new team members, explaining complex scientific concepts in a clear and approachable way. I’ve also led community health education initiatives, teaching a wide range of audiences—from teens to adults—about health, wellness, and science in practical, understandable terms.
I specialize in tutoring middle and high school students in Biology, Anatomy, and Biochemistry. My approach is to make science relatable and understandable rather than intimidating. I focus on helping students see the “why” behind the material, not just memorizing facts. I also incorporate study strategies, time management, and problem-solving techniques so students not only improve their grades but also build confidence and independent learning skills.
I have experience working one-on-one with students in both academic and volunteer settings. Whether helping a student understand challenging concepts, preparing for exams, or supporting research projects, I adapt my teaching to each student’s unique learning style. My goal is to make science engaging, help students develop lasting skills, and support them in achieving academic success. I love seeing students gain confidence in their abilities and take pride in their accomplishments.
