我在埃默里大学获得了神经科学和行为生物学学士学位，辅修西班牙语。我目前正在波士顿大学医学院攻读医学科学硕士学位。在大学里，我曾经教过一个高中生，在他九年级的时候，我主要关注他的生物和写作作业。我是马库斯自闭症中心的一名研究协调员，在那里我与有和没有学习障碍的非常小的孩子(2-9岁)一起工作。我们一起学习一般的学校相关技能和他们带来的作业。在我的硕士课程中，我做了很多小组学习。通常，这意味着我要教一群需要以新的方式看待材料的同龄人。我喜欢学习，我想帮助别人也喜欢学习。在我的整个学习过程中，分数对我来说从来都不容易。我一直在努力变得更好，并试图找出如何用不同的方法解决问题。 With this type of experience, I want to help other students who may be struggling with a concept to get to a place where they see how fun and rewarding it can be to really understand the material. I tutor a wide variety of topics; however, my favorites are biology and anatomy. Biology is so exciting for me because it is the foundation for all of life, and helps us understand the world we live in. Anatomy is great because you are living in your own cheat sheet (your body)! When I am tutoring, I want to hear or see my students' thought processes. It's great if you can get to the right answer, but truly learning means knowing how you got there. So, I love having my students teach the concepts back to me. Outside of school, I play slow-pitch softball and I love to cook and bake.
