Fun Facts

Since early childhood I was a visual artist, so basically painting and sketching are some of the things that occupy my free time. During the years of High School, I was on the tennis team, in my opinion it is always important to balance physical and intellectual activities. Another fun fact would be that out of all literature, my favorite kind to read is Russian Classics.

About Me

Although I mentioned my passion for art in the "Fun Facts" section, I am actually a junior pre-medical student, who is aspiring to become an ophthalmologist (eye doctor) in the future. I study biology as a major at Hunter College (City University of New York) and minor in Politics.

Experience

I am a part of teaching organization caller Peer Health Exchange, where we, the unpaid volunteers, conduct health workshops at High Schools. We teach teenagers the skills and knowledge of making informed health decisions. Two workshops are conducted on weekly basis, and there are also weekly mandatory meetings for us, educators, to advance in our teaching technique.

Approach

My approach as a teacher would be to start from the very beginning, the basic concepts that will compose a firm ground for the future material. Organic chemistry ideas always build up on top of one another, therefore, it is essential to have a good understanding of every concept. After the theory is made clear, we will move on to practicing problems and even most difficult cases that are to be provided by me.
