"I am qualified to tutor in biology and genetics based on my strong academic background and extensive professional scientific experience. I hold a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Biology, followed by a Ph.D. with a focus on molecular biology and genetics. Throughout my academic training, I gained deep expertise in cell biology, molecular pathways, genomics, rare diseases, and applied research techniques.

I have over 12 years of experience working as a scientist, including five years at Moderna, where I led cross-functional research programs, mentored junior scientists, and taught complex biological concepts to audiences with varying levels of scientific knowledge. My approach emphasizes clarity, real-world examples, and breaking down advanced topics—such as gene regulation, RNA technologies, and inherited diseases—into digestible concepts tailored to each student’s level.

My teaching and tutoring experience includes mentoring undergraduate and graduate students in laboratory settings, providing one-on-one coaching, and guiding project-based learning. I have worked with students ranging from high-school level to early-career researchers, adapting my style to support beginners as well as advanced learners. I focus on building confidence, strengthening foundational understanding, and using problem-solving strategies rooted in active learning.

Overall, my academic training, professional research career, and hands-on teaching experience make me well-suited to tutor students in biology and genetics with both depth and approachability." less...
