About
Ever had one of those teachers where you feel like you can ask them anything and they will never make you feel stupid? THAT is how I teach. Although I did go through medical school and earned an MD, I will never forget that first year. There was so much to learn! One thing I took from that was that you just can NOT memorize everything. There MUST be a better way to actually learn high volumes of material. THERE IS! Whether it is to take it in bite-size pieces or having a fun story attached to it, or a mnemonic (a type of learning device to help prompt you to remember), I can help get you there. And you WILL succeed. You CAN actually ask all those questions that you felt so stupid asking. And I will answer them. When you succeed, I succeed, and that will make us both very happy!
The boring part: I am an M.D. by trade but I’ve always loved teaching and tutoring the Sciences. I’ve been doing it on the side for over 15 years. Part of my job is helping people understand complex concepts. I work with high school students all the way up through graduate students, including medical students and nursing students.
I don’t believe there is just one learning style for every person. I think that every person learns differently, and it takes getting to know someone and learning what that style is for each person. It is my job to think outside of the box. Nobody should give up! Everyone can be a rockstar.
Sciences are my specialty. I love to work with students in chemistry (also AP and honors chemistry), biochemistry, microbiology, organic chemistry, anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology and just about anything in the science realm. (Except physics!)
