In bioprocessing you cannot have the cake and eat it too. Constantly, you need to make choices about which unit operation is best suited for a particular application and what are the trade offs. Because of so many factors that guide this decision, it can be daunting for starting biotech/bioprocess students to be overwhelmed. I was definitely overwhelmed in my 1st year of uni. But after 5 years studying the subject, I am here to help you to think like an engineer and make informed choices based on the context of the process and product. In my class, I will teach you the theoretical background behind bioreactors and common unit operations (e.g. filtration, centrifugation, chromatography) and how to implement them into a bioprocess. This class is best suited for university students (bachelor or master), people joining/switching industry or just people interested in how pharmaceuticals are made! If you are a university student, we can can discuss your own assignments or projects. I create my own materials for each class and use a tablet to easily draw diagrams and mechanisms, write down chemical reactions and step-by-step calculations. For any questions, please feel free to contact me!
In this class I will help you navigate the content and give you tips and tricks on how to prepare for the exams and complete your IAs/EEs. First and foremost my lessons are tailored to YOUR needs - how you learn makes a big impact on your understanding of school material. I am aiming to create a comfortable, relaxed and motivating space where you can come to at ANY knowledge/skill level and ASK any questions. :) Despite, my science-heavy background I make the lessons creative and fun and I encourage my student to think outside of the science subjects. I create my own materials for each class and use a tablet to easily draw structures and mechanisms, write down chemical reactions and step-by-step calculations.

Monica is an excellent tutor. She is always prepared and knows how to make everything seem easy. She is also making notes with the basic questions and answers that she sends after the class, which is so helpful! I highly recommend her!
