1.) Best thing about being a tutor?
The feeling that I am helping people do better in a subject that I am knowledgeable on.
It makes me feel that I am doing something to make their lives a little easier. I love seeing that "light bulb" go off in their head whenever something they have been struggling with finally clicks.
2.) What advice do you have for students thinking about getting a tutor?
Don't be afraid to ask for help. Everyone struggles in certain subjects from time-to-time and there is absolutely no shame in needing some extra guidance beyond what you are learning in the classroom.
3.) If you could change anything about being a tutor, to help your students more, what would it be and why?
Honestly, the only thing I would change is the method we are currently having to do most tutoring meetings over. I feel that many of the students that I tutor are struggling with the online classes and tutoring sessions and are getting discouraged by it. I wish I could meet with them more in person because I feel it would better their understanding on certain subjects.
4.) What are your hobbies, interests or life goals?
I love to read, draw, and paint. My ultimate goal after I graduate college with my desired degree is to go into medical research.
I plan to one day study rare, chronic, and terminal illnesses to help in the advancement of less harsh and more effective medical treatments.
