"Hello! My name is Kristin and I graduated Magna Cum Laude from UC San Diego with my Bachelors of Science degree in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. I also triple minored in Business, Economics and History.

Throughout high school and university, I gained extensive experience as a tutor and TA in supporting my peers and other students in a wide gamut of subjects including Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, Trigonometry, various branches of Biology, general chemistry and AP Chemistry. Each time, I have found the experience to be incredibly rewarding. Not only do I get to help other students increase their confidence and achieve their academic goals but also I have the opportunity to gain further insight into what works as an effective learning method.

In terms of my tutoring style, I am an advocate of active learning and fostering a comfortable environment for the student to learn. To promote this, I create visuals, curate practice problems, custom-make study sheets for the student, and incorporate various explanations to help students understand different concepts. I constantly ask if the student understands what I just explained and will always encourage asking questions!

I love helping people accomplish their academic goals and would be committed to ensuring your success. If you think we would be a good fit, feel free to contact me!
