"I graduated from Brigham Young University in 2013 with a B.S. in Biology. I am passionate about all things biology related, from the inner workings of the cell to the complications of the various ecosystems. I also crave algebra and the stimulation of solving a math problem puzzle. I love the art of wordcraft and understanding and molding the English language to accomplish a goal, either in essay writing or creative writing. After graduation I worked as a Veterinary Assistant, but after relocating across the U.S. I mostly used my biology degree to create biological specimens in the form of my four fantastic children. When I began the process of teaching my eldest to read I was reminded of the joy that teaching and tutoring can bring.

I have been tutoring with Wyzant for a little over 2 years, in a wide variety of subjects.. I have tutored a number of IB Biology students who go on to get a score of 7 (of 7). I have helped several college students improve their grades in classes from Ichthyology to Botany to Astronomy. I have helped several elementary- and middle-school students through pre-made as well as me-made homeschool curricula. I love helping students connect the dots and find the fun in the subject they are studying.

I am prepared to tutor in a wide variety of subjects, but my passions lie mainly in biology, chemistry, math, and language arts. I'm excited for the opportunity to explore these subjects and their challenges with students of all ages and levels! I have a number of tricks up my sleeve to help you achieve your academic or curiosity-based goals in a wide variety of subjects. Put me to the test! I love learning and teaching and am excited do so together." less...
