I got started teaching when I noticed that some of my classmates were struggling with certain concepts in our courses. Having a strong grasp of the material myself, I felt compelled to help others understand and succeed as well. I began offering informal study sessions and tutoring sessions, which were well-received. The positive feedback and the satisfaction of seeing my peers improve their understanding motivated me to continue and formalize my role as a tutor. This experience ignited my passion for teaching and sharing knowledge, leading me to explore opportunities beyond the classroom and consider tutoring as a valuable aspect of my academic journey.
I hold a Ph.D. in Biochemistry and a B.S. in Biochemistry and Mathematics. My academic background provides a solid foundation in the subjects I tutor. Additionally, my experience as a 1:1 tutor and instructor for larger classes during college has equipped me with valuable teaching skills and the ability to adapt to diverse learning needs. This hands-on experience has honed my ability to communicate complex scientific and mathematical concepts effectively.

I recently experienced immense joy and satisfaction when a student I had been tutoring for dental school successfully gained admission. Witnessing their hard work, dedication, and perseverance culminate in this achievement was incredibly rewarding for both of us.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Before talking to teachers about their needs, students should think through the following questions to ensure a productive and meaningful conversation:
1. What Specific Challenges Am I Facing?
o Identify the specific areas or topics where you are struggling or need additional support. This clarity will help the teacher understand your needs more precisely.
2. What Are My Learning Goals?
o Clearly define your short-term and long-term learning goals. Whether it's improving grades, mastering a particular concept, or gaining a deeper understanding of the subject, having well-defined goals will guide the conversation.
3. How Do I Learn Best?
o Reflect on your preferred learning style—whether you learn better through visual aids, hands-on activities, discussions, or other methods. This information will assist the teacher in tailoring their approach to match your learning preferences.
4. Have I Tried Any Strategies on My Own?
o Consider any strategies or study techniques you have already attempted to address your challenges. Sharing this information with the teacher will give them insights into what has or hasn't worked for you in the past.
5. What Resources Do I Have Access To?
o Take note of the resources available to you, such as textbooks, online materials, or additional study aids. This information can help the teacher recommend supplementary resources to enhance your learning experience.
6. Are There External Factors Affecting My Studies?
o Reflect on any external factors that may be impacting your academic performance, such as personal circumstances, time constraints, or other commitments. Sharing this information can help the teacher provide more personalized support.
7. How Comfortable Am I Seeking Help?
o Consider your comfort level in seeking help and communicating with teachers. If there are any concerns or hesitations, acknowledging them beforehand can open the door to a more open and supportive dialogue.
8. What Specific Questions Do I Have?
o Prepare a list of specific questions or topics you would like to discuss with the teacher. This ensures that the conversation remains focused and addresses your most pressing concerns.
9. How Can the Teacher Support Me Best?
o Reflect on the type of support you believe would be most beneficial. Whether it's additional explanations, extra practice opportunities, or different teaching methods, understanding your preferences will assist the teacher in tailoring their assistance.
10. What Changes Can I Commit To?
o Consider any adjustments or changes you are willing to make in your study habits or approach to improve your learning experience. A collaborative effort between you and the teacher can lead to more effective solutions.
By thinking through these questions, students can approach discussions with teachers in a more organized and proactive manner, fostering a partnership that enhances the learning process.

I thought Yonghwa did a great job tutoring me in calculus and biology. She asked what my goals were at the beginning of out working together, asked about my learning style and figured out what worked for me, and then wrote a plan for us to stick so that I could track my progress and achieve my goal.
I loved working with Lily on my Science classes. She is a really good teacher and was very patient with me when I struggled. She questioned me a lot to make sure that I really understood the concept rather than just telling me the answer. She also referred me to many helpful resources that I could use as additional reading.
Lily is the most amazing tutor ever. She is very knowledge and patient. I asked a lot of difficult questions, but she was able to answer all of them clearly. Lily made learning fun again for me. I would recommend Lily as a tutor to all my friends. You will be lucky to have her as your tutor.
