Introduction
Hello! I’m a passionate educator with a deep love for science and math. I started my journey as a tutor in college and eventually became an adjunct chemistry professor, working with students from elementary school to university. I’ve designed college-level curricula, coordinated tutoring programs with large school districts, and helped countless students master science and math. I believe learning should be engaging, personalized, and confidence-building. My approach isn’t just about passing exams, it’s about developing critical thinking skills that will help you long after tutoring ends. I love working with students who are curious, motivated, or even a little unsure —I’m here to help make it click for you. Looking forward to learning together! I have a strong background in chemistry education, with experience teaching and mentoring students at various levels. My education began during my undergraduate degree, where I conducted inorganic chemistry research and taught general chemistry recitations. I later served as an Adjunct Lab Professor, where I instructed multiple sections of General Chemistry I. In this role, I oversaw lab experiments, designed and graded quizzes, and ensured students followed proper safety protocols. My teaching methodology focuses on personalized learning, problem-solving, and confidence-building. I aim to make science and math approachable and engaging, tailoring my instruction to fit each student's learning style and goals. Learning science and math doesn’t have to be frustrating—it can be exciting, rewarding, and even fun with the right approach! Whether you’re struggling with coursework, preparing for a big exam, or looking to get ahead, I’m here to help you gain confidence, master challenging concepts, and develop strong problem-solving skills that will serve you for life. With experience as a college professor, I know that every student learns differently. That’s why I tailor each lesson to your unique needs, breaking down complex topics in a way that makes sense to you. My goal isn’t just to help you pass a test—it’s to help you truly understand the material and feel empowered in the process. If you’ve ever thought, “I’m just not a science or math person,” I’m here to prove you wrong! With the right guidance and support, you’ll be surprised at what you’re capable of. Let’s work together to unlock your full potential—book your first lesson today and take the first step toward success!

I'm so glad we found Simple STEM Tutoring! My son has always struggled with math, and Ive tried so many tutors over the years, but this is the first time Ive seen him actually enjoy learning. The tutors here are not only incredibly knowledgeable but also patient and encouraging, which makes such a difference.I love that the sessions are personalized to his needswhether its homework help or preparing for exams, they really tailor everything to what hes working on. The flexibility of in-person and online options is also a huge plus, especially with our busy schedule.
