"Hi, I am an experienced teacher specializing in Biology. I obtained my PhD in molecular biology from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine and did my postdoctoral training at Duke University. I joined the University of California, San Diego, 2017 as an Assistant Professor. During my tenure, I had extensive experience teaching Biology to Undergraduates and mentoring them in their Thesis work. I also have experience teaching biology to high school students and assisting them in their laboratory research during their summer internship in my laboratory.

My teaching philosophy in biology focuses on sparking curiosity and connecting scientific concepts to real-world experiences. I encourage my students to explore biological principles through inquiry-based learning, emphasizing the importance of questioning and experimentation. My lessons are designed to demonstrate how biology applies to their daily lives, from understanding ecosystems and the environment to exploring human health and genetics. I believe that by fostering critical thinking, I can help my students build a strong foundation in biological literacy, equipping them with the skills to analyze, question, and appreciate the complex, interconnected world around them." less...
