...the new MCAT and believe that I can teach my tools for success to any pre-student willing to learn them. I have been a teaching assistant for both General Chemistry I and II for two semesters each and have taught CPR, AED, First Aid to Salt Lake City Citizens.

I also work as an emergency room medical scribe, and I am...

...questions. I quickly realized that the way I learned complex topics would not work for others. I learned the Krebs cycle by memorizing the names of the enzymes and connecting them to the movement of carbons throughout the cycle. However, other students I tutored could benefit from visualizing the cycle as a car line in which passengers are dropped off and picked up. After realizing that teaching methods are highly student based, my time as...

...college career. Since my junior year, I have worked as an official undergraduate tutor at Baylor University, a spot I earned with high grades in classes such as Biology, Physics, and Chemistry. I was selected from hundreds of applicants through a highly competitive interview by the tutoring center. Tutoring can be challenging. In the most difficult sessions, I revisited and retaught material. This requires me to go over the material and also make sure the...

...I will guide our work to hone in on exactly where the difficulty lies. While working to use our time efficiently, I also believe that an intense, lecture-driven approach is rarely conducive to fostering an atmosphere of curiosity and willingness to try. Therefore, I will regularly solicit feedback, encourage questions, and assess what methods work best for you so that I can adjust my approach accordingly. Having tutored students since high school, I firmly believe...

...and where they are coming from. This ability to listen is crucial also for tutoring and understanding a child's academic needs. In working with patients, I also regularly break down tough scientific concepts into every-day language that they can relate to. This is another very important skill to have when working with students who may be struggling to understand difficult technical concepts. I am confident that my years of academic experience will serve well in...
