Biology, Genetics, Python, and Unix basicsI am not accepting new students at this time. Sorry!
I discovered my love of teaching when I became a teaching assistant in graduate school. It felt wonderful whenever the look of understanding came over a student's face. I remembered that feeling from the other side, when I finally understood a difficult concept, and I was excited to learn that I could give that to someone else. I want to continue to be able to provide that understanding to whoever I can.
I specialize in tutoring biology, especially genetics and microbiology, as well as the basics of the Unix operating system and the Python language. No matter what I am teaching, my first goal in every lesson is to make sure the student fully understands the lesson before we move forward. To that end, I will assign homework where necessary and make sure to discuss it during the next session. I can also provide periodic assessments and progress reports on request.
I try to be flexible with my time and to that end I am willing to offer makeup classes and rescheduling as needed.
