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.
