"I’m Derek, a PhD student studying biostatistics. I have a Bachelor’s in chemistry and molecular biology and a Master’s in biostatistics. In addition to two years of tutoring math and science, I have several semesters of teaching experience in chemistry, statistics, and programming. Whether you're preparing for an exam or just would like to reinforce your understanding of a challenging topic, I want to help you achieve your educational goals!

My experience is primarily helping high school and early college students excel in math, statistics, and chemistry. I want to meet you at your current level of mastery, and help you develop connections to current material based upon their previous experience and tangible real-life examples. I enjoy working with students one-on-one to overcome the problems of large classes or lecture hall - personalized instruction, targeting specific areas that you find challenging, and access to immediate feedback.

I understand that every student comes with their unique combination of background and goals, and I look forward to helping you master what is important to you! Feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a lesson." less...
