Experience
I earned a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Villanova University. While I was an undergraduate student, I worked with many students in the tutoring of a vast array of subjects. After graduation, I enrolled in the University of California - Davis to work on my master's degree in Entomology. In this program, I researched how pesticides impact the behavior of honey bees. While working on my master's degree, I also was a teaching assistant and co-developed a course on the relationships between current issues, beekeeping, and bee conservation. I also taught this class. I have since completed my degree and returned to Pennsylvania. I enjoy learning, and I work to inspire students through a positive environment. I also experience such joy when I help others with their own academic goals. Each student deserves a patient teacher who understands what the student faces. This helps in the communication process between the teacher and student. I have tutored students in the science subjects of biology and chemistry, the math subjects of algebra to precalculus, and in the English subject of essay writing. I also can work with students on test prep for the SAT and GRE. I enjoy teaching SAT math as it requires lateral thinking. I also enjoy teaching biology as I have always found it fascinating. In my free time, I enjoy topics related to science and politics as well as cooking, practicing yoga, gardening, visiting aquariums, playing video games, and soccer.
