Hi, I’m Ellie! I’m studying Bioinformatics and Chemistry at Brigham Young University and have a strong foundation in Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics. I’m a CRLA-certified tutor, and I worked as a Biology and Chemistry Peer Tutor for the BYU Student Success Center. There I tutored students one-on-one online and in person, reviewed and graded assignments, and led online learning activities for high school and college science courses.
I first found my love for teaching in high school in San Francisco, where I graduated with a 4.0 GPA and a 1500 SAT. I was a peer tutor in AP Biology and Chemistry and a chemistry teaching assistant, and I privately tutored precalculus and calculus. These experiences showed me how rewarding it is to help students overcome challenges and gain confidence in their studies.
My approach focuses on deep understanding and real excitement for learning. When students understand the “why” behind a concept, they do better academically, and they also become more motivated and curious. I break complex topics into clear, manageable steps, adapt to different learning styles, and encourage active problem-solving so students feel capable and in control.
I specialize in Biology, Chemistry, Precalculus, and Calculus I. My goal is to help students improve their grades and also build the confidence and enthusiasm that make learning meaningful. Feel free to reach out with questions or to schedule a lesson. I’m excited to help you succeed!
