"Hi! I'm Ally, a cum laude graduate from Miami University with a BS in Biology, Pre-Medical Studies, and Spanish. While my degree focuses on human sciences, my experience extends to tutoring multiple subjects, including Biology, Chemistry, Spanish, and English. My background has helped me develop strong critical thinking and communication skills, which I apply in tutoring to help students better understand and retain new concepts. I also have practical experience in biological research, having earned certifications and co-authored research articles. This experience allows me to bring real-world insights into my tutoring, especially in the sciences. I believe that showing students the practical applications of what they’re learning makes the material more engaging and relevant. For example, I start each lesson with an introduction that connects the material to something students can relate to or find interesting. This sets a positive tone for the session and sparks curiosity about the topic.

With 2 years of experience tutoring elementary students in reading, writing, and math, as well as 2.5 years tutoring college students in group settings, I’ve worked with students at many levels. I understand that every student learns differently, and I tailor my methods to suit their needs. My goal is to foster academic success and build confidence while equipping students with critical thinking, problem-solving, and self-discipline skills. Learning is a lifelong process, and developing strong learning skills is just as essential as mastering the material itself. Whether helping younger students build foundational skills or guiding older students through complex coursework, I aim to equip them with the tools to succeed independently.

I am committed to providing the best support possible to each student, and I’m always open to suggestions or resources that students or parents can offer. I’m easy to contact and will respond quickly to any inquiries. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to arrange a lesson!" less...
