"Born into a family of professors, I developed a passion for teaching since my middle-school days. After voluntary tutoring while at high-school and college, my penchant for teaching motivated me to join the PhD program within the Dept. of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at the Ohio State University (OSU), Columbus, Ohio.

I fully realized my potential as a teacher in 2011, when I was employed as a Graduate Teaching Assistant by the College of Engineering at OSU. During this stint, I taught math, chemistry, and physics to classes comprising of more than 100 freshmen and sophomore students. My core expertise lies in my innate ability to educate a group of highly diverse students in terms of their learning styles. I consider that the act of imparting education to students should be tailored to each individual's strengths and attitude towards learning.

In addition to personalized (and differentiated) instruction methods, my teaching style frequently incorporates practical demonstrations, real-life analogies, and guided practices to make complicated subjects like math and chemistry more relatable and overall approachable.

After successfully graduating with a PhD in 2014, I took up jobs within the healthcare industry where I utilize my mathematical skills and chemical/pharmaceutical knowhow on a daily basis to identify gaps in drug and therapy deliveries and foster precision medicine. During these last 10 years, I have helped over 150 students navigate their journeys through middle and high school and in some cases even college. I am expert at teaching Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, 2, Geometry, Pre-Calc, Calc I, 2, Chemistry (AP/Hons), Physics (AP/Hons), Excel, Python, and R. One trait that my students tend to appreciate about me is - I focus on teaching them how to tackle previously unseen problems and foreign situations.

I believe that a good teacher is one who is also an excellent learner, and learning is a never ending process, therefore, learning to teach is eternal." less...
