Hi, I'm Ed. As a graduate student researcher actively working on my thesis in chemistry, I'm passionate about making science accessible and exciting. My hands-on experience in various chemistry disciplines, coupled with a year of teaching and recognition as a Dean's List and President's List honoree as well as my award in Best Oral Undergraduate Presentation in Chemistry, has equipped me to break down complex topics into easy-to-understand concepts.
I've been actively involved in tutoring and teaching throughout my academic journey. During my undergraduate years, I served as a tutor for Algebra, Biology, and Chemistry, helping fellow students grasp challenging concepts. Currently, I'm a Graduate Teaching Assistant for General Chemistry courses, a role I've held for the past year. This experience has allowed me to refine my teaching skills and connect with students in a classroom setting. My teaching experience primarily involves working with college freshmen and sophomores, guiding them through foundational courses and fostering their understanding of scientific principles.
I believe in teaching for understanding, not just memorization. We'll build a strong foundation by exploring the "why" behind the concepts, using clear explanations, visuals, and real-world examples to make even the most abstract ideas click. I like setting up problems that we can work on together and provide short lectures on the true inner workings of scientific principles.
