Experience
Tutoring experience: As a junior and senior in high school I tutored freshman and sophomore students in the sciences through a program called Face2Face Mentoring Program. I also tutored Spanish to freshman and sophomore students through Spanish Honor Society. As a college student, I taught the math course through an SAT Prep program for minority students called Let's Get Ready. Relevant High School Courses: Honors English I & II, AP English III, AP English IV, AP Biology, Honors Biology, Honors Chemistry, Honors Physics, Algebra, Geometry, Algebra II/Trigonometry, Honors World History, Spanish I-IV Relevant College Courses: Biology I/II, Chemistry I/II, Physics I/II, Organic Chemistry I/II, Biochemistry, Calculus I/II, Sociology of Medicine, Obesity and Society, Medical Anthropology, Disease and Society, Infectious Diseases, Spanish III/IV, Statistics Extracurricular activities (College and Medical School): Vice President and later President of New Spirit of Penn Gospel Choir Secretary of Minority Association of Pre-Health Students (MAPS) SNMA/MAPS Liaison of MAPS Secretary of Onyx Senior Honors Society 1st Year Vice President and later President of Student National Medical Association (SNMA) FAST Advisor (Faculty And Students Together) Why I want to be a tutor: I would love to be a tutor because I really enjoy working with people and helping people better prepare for their future. I know how difficult some of these courses can be, not everyone is capable of learning information in the standard way that is delivered by teachers. I remember the people who went out of their way to help me when I was struggling and with the knowledge I know now, I would like to do the same for another person. Furthermore, I believe that I possess several of the personality traits like patience, diligence, positivity, and creativity that would make a tutoring experience easy and rewarding.
