Career Experience

I'm a neuroscientist turned science writer who has been teaching students in English/writing and STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) at the K-12, undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate levels for over 20 years. I have taught all kinds of subjects, both in the classroom and at the lab bench. One of my favorite teaching memories is when I got to teach medical students all about brain anatomy using real brain specimens. Interactive learning is fun!

I Love Tutoring Because

it's fun and rewarding to help people understand subjects and help them realize their full potential. As the saying goes, "Knowledge is power!"

It's very stupid in my opinion that tutors cannot help students with essays containing personal information. I can't get help for my digital identity essay now.
