Sherry
Certified Tutor
My name is Sherry and I currently have my graduate degree in Social Sciences with a background in healthcare, data science, data management, statistical models. With over 8 years of experience teaching elementary, high school, undergraduate and graduate students, I specialize in tutoring many subjects, mostly in the humanities and social sciences. I also tutor in Mandarin Chinese. As a native speaker in Chinese, I love to teach Chinese because the language relates to my background and specialty. I can also tutor areas in social sciences, including statistics, biostatistics, psychology, etc. I am looking forward to meeting new students. My teaching philosophy is to let students get the most out of the sessions and I am very flexible to cater to students' needs.

Art and music have played a great role in my life. Since elementary school, I have been involved in creating artworks using various mediums such as crayons, charcoals, and color pencils. As time passed by, I have started to attend art classes outside of this.
