Zareefah says, "They explained how to solve problems really slowly and patiently. They went over things until I really understood how to do them. And they were really nice too, I didn’t feel anxiety when they asked me to solve a problem on my own, when I got something wrong they simply went over it again. Perfect teaching/ tutoring style.

I am a graduating Chemical Engineering Student from University of Missouri Columbia Class of 2020. For one year I was a community college campus tutor. I was also a teaching assistant for a Mass and Energy Balance course. These are some of the more physical things that show I am capable of teaching. Additionally, I truly enjoy helping people understand the material! I recently recieved a National Science Foundation Graduate Fellowship to pursue graduate school to get my PhD and hopefully teach someday. I also love research and applications of science and math. Being a chemical engineering student has a lot of these examples so don't be afrai
