As an aspiring astrophysicist and science communicator, I am deeply passionate about unraveling the mysteries of the universe and sharing that knowledge with others. Currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Astrophysics with an expected completion in 2027, I bring a rich background in advanced scientific concepts to my tutoring practice. My academic journey, which includes a Specialization/Bachelor's in Physics obtained in 2022, has equipped me with a solid foundation in the sciences and a keen analytical mind.
Beyond my academic pursuits, I am driven by a genuine desire to make complex scientific ideas accessible to all. This passion for clarity and understanding fuels my tutoring work and aligns with my future aspirations in science communication. I believe that education is not just about passing exams, but about igniting curiosity and fostering a lifelong love for learning.
My journey as a tutor began in 2018, and since then, I have gained valuable experience in both in-person and online teaching environments. In the realm of private, face-to-face tutoring, I have primarily worked with high school students (ages 16-18) and university undergraduates, helping them navigate challenging coursework in physics, mathematics, and chemistry.
Concurrently, I have been employed by an online tutoring company, which has broadened my experience to include younger students. Through this platform, I've had the opportunity to work with learners as young as 9 years old, adapting my teaching style to suit their needs and learning pace.
My subject expertise spans across several STEM fields. I specialize in tutoring coding, physics, math, and chemistry, covering a wide range of topics within these disciplines. This diverse subject knowledge allows me to provide comprehensive support to students, often helping them see connections between different scientific fields.
At the core of my teaching philosophy is the Socratic method. Rather than simply providing answers, I guide students through a process of discovery using targeted questions. This approach encourages critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and a deeper engagement with the material.
I tailor my teaching style to each student's individual needs, learning preferences, and age group. With younger students, I focus on building a strong foundation and fostering enthusiasm for science. For older students, I emphasize connecting theoretical concepts to real-world applications and preparing for advanced studies.
In my sessions, I strive to create a supportive and engaging learning environment. I use a variety of tools and techniques, including visual aids, practical experiments (where possible), and real-life examples to illustrate abstract concepts. My goal is to not only help students improve their grades but also to develop their analytical skills and scientific intuition.
I believe that effective tutoring goes beyond the immediate academic goals. As such, I focus on imparting study skills, time management techniques, and strategies for independent learning. By doing so, I aim to equip my students with the tools they need for long-term academic success and personal growth.
