Career Experience

I'm a neuroscientist turned science writer who has been teaching students in English/writing and STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) at the K-12, undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate levels for over 20 years. I have taught all kinds of subjects, both in the classroom and at the lab bench. One of my favorite teaching memories is when I got to teach medical students all about brain anatomy using real brain specimens. Interactive learning is fun!

I Love Tutoring Because

it's fun and rewarding to help people understand subjects and help them realize their full potential. As the saying goes, "Knowledge is power!"

This service is a great idea I think. For students that have trouble finding help on the internet, having someone to explain to them thingies in more depth then what they can find just from a surface level web search would certainly help. And the tutor I got was good, she had a good attitude and was excited to help me understand ad hominems, I appreciated that.
