Experience

I am an alumnus of the University of Toronto Schools (UTS), one of Canada’s most prestigious and academically challenging secondary schools. I am well versed in standardized testing prep, having written the UTS entrance exam, the PSAT, and scoring in 90th percentile on my single attempt at the LSAT exam. I completed my undergraduate studies and graduate studies at McMaster University, earning a Bachelor of Science (Honours) and Masters of Science in Neuroscience, respectively. In completing these degrees, I have become an expert in the subject areas of biology, anatomy, psychology, and chemistry. I also took a variety of language courses, and am able to tutor English and Spanish.

I have been a teaching assistant for 2 upper-year science courses at McMaster University - Living Systems Laboratory (Life Sci 2L03) and Neurobiology of Disease (Life Sci 3B03). I thoroughly enjoyed my experience teaching these 2 courses, and want to continue tutoring in order to assist more students achieve their highest potential.

Volunteer Tutor - Frontier College (Sept 2013 – June 2014): I taught high school courses (English, math, chemistry, biology) to at-risk and newly immigrated students. I adapted my teaching styles for ESL learners, as well as advanced learners who were attending for extra help.

Program Leader - Let’s Talk Science (Sept 2015 – April 2017): I coordinated with local groups in the Hamilton region (e.g. Brownies; Big Brothers, Big Sisters) to organize lessons on wide variety of scientific topics. I was responsible for leading fun, interactive workshops for children aged 4-16 years old on topics such as astronomy, biology and physics at age-appropriate level.

Hobbies

I have been dancing since I was young - first as a classically trained Kathak dancer, and more recently taking urban dance classes whenever possible.

I also love working with animals! I go to my friend's farm whenever I can, and am a recreational pet-sitter.

I am also more than happy to take recommendations about whatever you're currently bingeing on Netflix.
