I hold a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry from Brigham Young University, which I recently completed with a 3.85 GPA. My degree gave me a strong, current foundation across the subjects I want to tutor: general and organic chemistry, biochemistry, genetics, and the statistics and physics that form the quantitative core of a science education. Beyond coursework, I spent three years as an undergraduate research assistant, where I designed and ran experiments, analyzed data, and regularly explained complex material to labmates and led journal-club discussions of primary literature. That work trained me to break difficult concepts into clear, logical steps and to explain the reasoning behind them, not just the result.
My tutoring began in high school, where I reached BC Calculus and would formally tutor fellow students in the morning focusing on math at every level, from those catching up on fundamentals to peers in advanced courses. Working one-on-one taught me to meet each learner where they are, find exactly where their understanding breaks down, and build it back up through worked examples and frequent check-ins. I have worked with students ranging from teenagers to adult peers, in both one-on-one and small-group settings.
Whether the goal is mastering a tough chemistry concept, a genetics problem set, or a statistics assignment, I focus on patient guidance that helps students understand why an answer is right, so they can solve the next problem on their own.
