Jordan

I have tutored a number of students from a wide age range, from 1st grade all the way up to college seniors, and have yet to find a student who is unteachable. I have exceptional foundational knowledge in biological sciences and can break down any concept to any student of any background. More recently, I have applied my understanding of biology to practical application in the medical field and can provide clinically relevant anecdotes to any students wishing to pursue any career in health sciences.
