Experience
I have tutored in biology, chemistry, math, music, and writing for the past 6 years. I love to interact with students and help them enrich their knowledge while growing their interests in the subjects that I teach. I strive to not only be a helpful tutor but a mentor in all aspects of academics. I am patient and understanding of any disabilities or challenges to learning, and accommodate as much as possible to adjust to needs. I am kind yet well-structured in teaching style. For reference, my standardized test scores are: ACT: 34 composite SAT2 chemistry: 800 SAT2 math 2: 800 USA Biology Olympiad Semifinalist (top ~500 olympiad scorers in USA)
