Even during normal times S.T.E.M. coursework can be overwhelming -- and the challenges of online learning have only made S.T.E.M. studies harder! In my tutoring I strive to make S.T.E.M. approachable and engaging by using detailed visual aides, a light-hearted classroom atmosphere, and my extensive engineering & science expertise! I can help you with general material understanding, problematic homework, exam prep, & more!

My ultimate goal: less stress, better grades, & more free-time for you!

Présentation
I am a PhD candidate in Materials Science & Engineering at Cornell University with a passion for science and teaching. I have spent a LOT of time listening to professors giving really excellent lectures... and a LOT of time listening to awful lectures, so I know first-hand the extraordinary value of effective teaching! I have extensive formal teaching training, as well as teaching experience. I have worked two years as a STEM tutor, I have been the Head Graduate Teaching Assistant for three college STEM courses (where I have won awards for my teaching excellence), and I have even worked for a year training ALL the engineering TA's at Cornell on how to be the best TA's possible!

I also have a secret background in studio art, and like to let my drawing skills sneak out while tutoring in the form of super detailed visual aides to help convey the hard topics to my students. I also always do my best to maintain a light-hearted teaching atmosphere!
