About Me

I graduated last year with my BA in Science. I immediately started my Masters of Science during the Summer, and I am on the verge of graduating this May of 2016 with a 4.0 GPA. I manage to receive both my Masters and Bachelors in Science within a four years time span. One word that I believe best describes me, would be caring. I care about my students and their abilities to strive to be the best they can be. I have a lot of patiences and tutoring techniques that will help students grasp and understand concepts easier, making learning more fun, as I like to put it. I have tutored at elementary schools around my neighborhood, helping students learn better through connection. I enjoy tutoring a variety if not all, Sciences and Math. During my undergraduate year, I have tutored college students, who have came back for tutoring every semester. Working with students to help them achieve their goals has been a passion of mine since I was in Junior High School. I am confident that I can help others in the best ways possible, getting them through all of their confusion because I know how frustrating it can be. For the future, I am hoping to start Medical School, pursing a career in Medicine, specifically becoming a Pediatrician because I believe in making a difference in children lives because a great future comes from a healthy body and mindset.

Hobbies & Interests

Reading, playing with my nieces and nephews, playing and watching various sports and volunteering in hospitals and elementary schools.

Q&A with Alicia

Everyone has different learning techniques and styles. I believe in making connection with students, especially when dealing with Science. Concepts could be related to many real-life situations. The key to learning Science would be the expansion of vocabulary and key words. For math it is easier, because there is always a way to check your answer. For math subjects, helping students understand that there is always a solution to any problem is key.
