Hi I’m Ellie! I’m currently a Biology student at Brigham Young University. I have a strong foundation in Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics. I graduated from high school in San Francisco with a 4.0 GPA and a 1500 SAT, and discovered my love for teaching by tutoring classmates and peers. I worked as a peer tutor in AP Biology and Chemistry at my school, served as a chemistry teaching assistant, and provided private tutoring in precalculus and calculus. From these experiences I learned how rewarding it is to help students overcome challenges and gain confidence in their studies.
My approach to tutoring focuses on building both deep understanding and excitement for learning. I believe that when students grasp the “why” behind a concept, they not only perform better academically but also grow more motivated and curious. I break down complex topics into clear, manageable steps, adapt to different learning styles, and encourage active problem-solving to help students feel empowered and capable.
I specialize in tutoring Biology, Chemistry, Precalculus, Calculus I, and ACT/ SAT Math and Science. I am passionate about helping students not just improve their grades, but also develop the confidence and enthusiasm that makes learning meaningful. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a lesson, I’m excited to help you succeed!
