Experience
Various teaching experiences have enhanced my ability to educate. I tutored as an American Chemical Society Student Chapter Volunteer and greatly enjoyed helping students in a one-on-one setting to understand chemistry and math concepts. Additionally, I have assisted instruction for five college science courses. I know how to pinpoint the specific problems that a student is struggling with and smoothly iron out a better understanding of the material. I can also assist with standardized test preparation. My SAT and GRE scores for math are 710 out of 800 and 780 out of 800, respectively. My Advanced Placement scores in physics and calculus are each 5 out of 5.
