About Me

I graduated in May 2014 from maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">columbia-university">maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">Columbia University with a degree in Biochemistry and a minor in Russian Literature (overall GPA 3.68). I am taking a gap year before going to medical school.

I started tutoring math in high school. I enjoyed it so much that I decided to pursue tutoring more extensively in college. At maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">columbia-university">maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">Columbia University, I have tutored mostly in test prep (SAT and ACT) and mathematics . I was employed by Cardinal Scholars previously. I also have taught English to Russian language speakers and Russian to English language speakers (I am bilingual).
Working for Frog Tutoring is an exciting way for me to reach out to more students and help more students achieve academic success.

I have been a Teaching Assistant for a Biology Laboratory course at maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">columbia-university">maryland/columbia">columbia">maryland/columbia">Columbia University for the past four semesters, and I think that this teaching opportunity has taught me a lot about how to approach students. I have learned to be patient and approach each student on an individual basis. When a student does not understand something, it is important to try to approach the problem in different ways, since everyone has their own learning stile.
I try to guide people with questions, answer any questions they may have, and teach students how to apply their knowledge to new problems.
