Brooke M.
Private tutor in Philadelphia, PA
Education
Virginia Tech - BS, Biological Sciences 2008 Tulane University of Louisiana - MSPH, Tropical Medicine 2014 (My Masters combined United States Peace Corps with coursework in New Orleans.)
Experience
Currently preparing to enter a PhD program in Infectious Disease Epidemiology. I have previously taught at a classroom level in Italy (teaching English) and in Malawi (teaching malaria epidemiology, social and behavioral aspects of health among other subjects to adult Americans and Malawians). The past two years I have been working in a remote area of PNG and therefore, combined with my other experiences, I am well versed on teaching across cultures. Relevant classes I have taken include entomology, immunology, virology, epidemiology, Italian language, social and behavioral aspects of global health, helminthology and protozoology. Even if it is not listed, feel free to inquire about a public health or biology related course! I am in pursuit of an academic career and love sharing my passion for these subjects with others!

Hobbies
My passions are those that combine language and science. I particularly love Italian and spent a year post-college teaching English and learning Italian in my spare time. I also am quite passionate about infectious disease control and prevention in sub-Saharan Africa. I have worked with lots of people from all over the world in both Malawi and Sierra Leone. In addition to language and travel, I love to read and to take classes for enjoyment.
