Tutor Information
About
Hi there! I'm a fourth year Biotechnology student at Queen's, and my favourite subjects in high school were physics, English, French, math, and biology! I'm well-versed in a variety of different topics and my goal is to suit my teaching style to your communication technique. The subjects I have excelled at in university so far (and am comfortable tutoring) include Introductory to Advanced Biostatistics, anything involving R programming, molecular genetics, population genetics, Introductory physics, and scientific writing. I am also happy to proofread and edit papers – I know how tricky scientific writing can be and have lots of helpful tips.
If I sound like a great fit for you, send me a message! I'm excited to meet you! :)
