Education
B.S. in Biology at University of California, Irvine. M.S. student Biochemistry at CSU Long Beach I taught a couple discussion classes and labs for general chemistry. Teaching is a passion of mine, and I spend a lot of time helping students. I put in a lot of effort in analyzing their learning patterns and work along side them to shore up any deficiencies in their thought process and work ethic. As a Master's student, I conducted some research on a particular enzyme called triosephosphate isomerase. As a biochemist, I have extensive and deep knowledge in both biology and chemistry, but I am able to simplify concepts for your high school student, while tying it together with larger concepts and real world examples.
