Subjects I tutor: I feel comfortable in assisting students in several subjects up to a college level. These subjects include: grade school math, science, and language arts, middle school math, science, and English, high school Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2, high school biology and chemistry, college algebra, college level general chemistry, biology, and any neuroscience or neuroscience related course.

I taught Chemistry, Biology, Geometry, Forensic Science, English, Earth Science, Physical Science, Life Science, Latin, and tutored in Biology, Chemistry, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Geometry.
