Dean M.
Private tutor in Pittsburgh, PA
Education
BS in Biological Sciences with a minor in Chemistry & a focus on Ecology. BA in English Writing, with a focus on Poetry & American Literature. Both degrees obtained from the University of Pittsburgh's main campus.
Experience
I've received exceptional scores on both the SAT & GRE. I have taken many, many courses in both Science and Writing, and can provide both an engaging method of understanding complex scientific processes through metaphor, as well as explain the 'rigid, scientific rules' of the creative process of writing.

Hobbies
Recent graduate, looking to stay sharp in my field while making a little extra cash on the side. Education is extremely important to me, and I try to be a part of it any way I can. I founded a weekly writer's workshop in Pittsburgh, PA where young people from all walks of life meet weekly to discuss their creative writing. It has been awarded a Sprout grant and has been going strong for over two years. I worked in a medical research lab for Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh for over two years, with a focus on women's health and Immunology (as well as Infectious Diseases). On a more personal level, I enjoy music (I play the drums & produce/mix songs) and, as you may imagine, I enjoy writing fiction and poetry. I am a stickler for good grammar (although won't make unnecessary corrections).
