Private tutor in Ames, IA
Education
Junior Genetics Major at Iowa State University, 3.0 GPA
Experience
I have tutored others in various math classes, non-calculus based physics, chemistry and biology. I am a "people person" and very conscientious. My SAT score in 2001 was 1540 (out of a possible 1600). I was a National Merit Scholar finalist and my ACT score in 2001 was 33 (out of a possible 36). I am patient and happy to help students who find themselves struggling. I have had several internships for the Program for Women in Science and Engineering at Iowa State. On such internship resulted in publication. This work was a bioethics case study of Golden, a transgenic crop developed for cultivation in developing nations with high incidences of dietary carotenoid deficiency.

Hobbies
I was a classically trained musician for thirteen years. My training included but was not limited to piano, viola, french horn and vocal lessons. I once sang on stage with John Denver at Cy Stevens. In high school I was an avid participant in mock trial, competing at state competition six years in a row from the ages of 12 to 17 when I graduated high school and began college. I have an easy-going personality but I expect hard work and diligence, both from myself and any prospective student.
