I am a senior undergraduate student completing a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry with a Biochemistry specialization. My tutoring experience began in high school, tutoring chemistry for sophomores and then as a Peer Led Learning (P2L) coach for general chemistry at my university. It's a structured program where I facilitate group learning sessions for undergraduate students ranging from first-year to third-year. I held this role for multiple semesters, leading sessions that ranged from small groups to full classrooms of up to 50 students during exam weeks.
My approach to tutoring is built around meeting students where they are rather than restating information the same way until it sticks. When students struggled with abstract concepts like acid-base strength, I replaced textbook explanations with analogies that made the material tangible, like using a tug-of-war to explain electron behavior.

Approved Subjects

DAT (Dental)

DAT (Dental)

I took the DAT during this current application cycle and scored above average overall, with strong performance in the science sections. I prepared using a structured ten-week study plan that combined content review, timed practice tests, and targeted review of my weaker areas, which gave me a clear understanding of how to approach each section strategically. I have experience breaking down complex science concepts as a Peer Led Learning coach for general chemistry, where I regularly helped students who were struggling to understand material similar to what appears on the DAT. I am applying to dental school this cycle and want to use what I learned through my own DAT preparation to help other pre-dental students approach the exam with both confidence and a clear strategy.
