About
Through my undergraduate and graduate studies, as well as my teaching assistant experience, I've learned the importance of adapting explanations to each student's needs.
Are there concepts that you find difficult to understand or problems that you can't work through? I've been there before. I will focus on developing your understanding and problem-solving skills with your class material.
***When you book a lesson, please share a short sentence, or a few keywords about the concepts you are currently studying. When we meet, I'll ask about what you are currently learning and what you find challenging. From there, we can work through problems together, and review concepts as needed.***
If you have any questions before booking, please feel free to message me!
Online lessons — flexible scheduling. Please message me with your preferred days/times and I'll do my best to accommodate.
About me- I hold an Honours BSc in Chemical Biology from McMaster University and an MSc in Medical Science from the University of Toronto. I have six years of experience in drug-development research and previously worked as a teaching assistant for CHMA11 (Introductory Chemistry II) at UofT Scarborough, where I guided undergraduate chemistry lab work and provided feedback to students.
My academic and professional research experience has strengthened my ability to troubleshoot problems, think critically, and explain scientific concepts clearly to people with different backgrounds.
I'd be happy to share what I have learned and help you succeed in your courses.
