About Me

I am a fourth year UC Berkely student majoring in Molecular and Cell Biology with a Neurobiology emphasis and minoring in Art Practice. I am the webmaster/design advisor for my club called the Society of Women in Science. After I graduate I plan to go to medical school and in the future become a physician or surgeon in neurology.

I've had informal experience with tutoring on a volunteer basis. Mostly in elementry or middle school subjects in math or science. I have extended experience with tutoring my younger sibling in those areas. In the past I babysat, where I did some homework help in math and language arts. I am a native spanish speaker and have taken 3 years of formal spanish in high school and intermediate spanish in Berkeley.

I feel that the best way to learn a new material is through visualization and recall. This depends on the subject on how you study the material. In math the best way is through understanding first, then doing lots of example problems. Science is easier by first understanding and then applying to real life. Then after flash card quizzing. It is important to engage the student and make learning fun and relatable. Number one reason why students feel unmotivated are because they don;t understnad how it applies to them or what the point of learning the material. Language apprach is important to practice key concepts, phrases everyday through repetition, image, and hearing recognition.
