Steinman Science Tutoring
About
What I bring to the table is a clear and straight forward understanding to the fields of science and math. I am proficient in general chemistry, organic chemistry, general biology, cellular and molecular biology, biochemistry, algebra physics, and physiology. I also enjoy tutoring basic algebra, including elementary school all the way up to high school level. My experience includes tutoring college STEM students, a teacher assistant position at the college university level, tutoring highschool math, and teaching elementary students. I obtained a Bachelors of Science in Biology from Biola University with the highest honors - Summa Cum Laude. I also work as a medical scribe, pursuing my goal of becoming a medical doctor.
I enjoy shattering confusing concepts and reshaping them into easy to understand concepts. It is a joy to work with frustrated and confused students, and see them develop into confident students who excel in their classes. For me, the greatest reward is to see this transformation.
