"I hold a Bachelor's degree in Biochemistry from Franklin & Marshall College and a Ph.D. in Biochemistry from Cornell University, which have equipped me with a deep understanding of biochemical, molecular biology, and general chemistry principles. During my PhD, I've had the privilege of serving as a teaching assistant both undergraduate and graduate-level biochemistry courses. I also have extensive tutoring experience for undergraduate biochemistry and general chemistry courses. These roles honed my ability to communicate complex scientific concepts in an accessible manner, fostering an environment conducive to learning.

As a tutor, I strive to develop tailored approaches to teaching that cater to the unique learning styles and needs of individual students. I prioritize fostering critical thinking skills and conceptual understanding, rather than rote memorization, especially when it comes to quantitative biochemistry and general chemistry topics.

Beyond the classroom, I've also served as a mentor for undergraduate students interested in pursuing research in biochemistry. This role has allowed me to not only impart technical knowledge but also instill a passion for scientific inquiry and experimentation. By providing guidance on experimental design, data analysis, and manuscript preparation, I've empowered students to develop the skills necessary for success in scientific research.

Overall, my educational background, teaching experience, and commitment to mentorship uniquely qualify me to provide effective tutoring in biochemistry, general chemistry and related disciplines. I have helped students prepare for exams and understand topics ranging from simple stoichiometric calculations all the way up to thermodynamics, enzyme kinetics and protein structure/function. I am dedicated to empowering students to achieve their academic goals." less...
