I like to break things down into simple concepts. My background in biology and software engineering has given me lots of opportunities to do so. I am quietly enthusiastic and patient, with the goal of building your confidence in becoming a master of your science course material. Science is such a crucial part of our society. I hope to help you see how curiosity and a scientific mentality will give you a strong position in our rapidly changing world.

I will meet you where you are and tailor lessons to your specific needs. I like to be Socratic and work with a lot of questions so that we can jointly reach a conclusion. Problem-solving is critical to success in science, and I have a lot of experience with it. Probably the most important topic we would cover would be the scientific method. So much depends on it, and sadly it is not recognized by many in our society. I also believe that learning can be fun, and if it isn't, I need to think with you about what could change that.
