- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelor of Science with Honors in Chemistry from Ohio State University and a Masters in Chemistry from Arizona State University. As part of these degrees, I took many chemistry, biology, physics, and math courses. I was a teaching assistant for four consecutive semesters of general chemistry laboratory (two at Ohio State, two at Arizona State). In addition to 3-8 hours of laboratory instruction per week, I worked individually with any student taking general chemistry to improve their understanding of the subject matter for 1-2 hours every week. I also have experience tutoring and teaching online. I was employed with Tutor.com, FrogTutoring, and Wyzant at various times in the past 6 years. I also was a teaching assistant for an online science course at Arizona State, where I would address student issues via message board for 20 hours every week.
