Andrew B.

Private tutor in Philadelphia, PA

Education

Temple University, Continuing Studies major, 3.9 GPA. University of Virginia, BS - Mechanical Engineering, 3.3 GPA. I enrolled at Temple University to complete the prerequisites I needed to apply to dental school. At Temple, I have completed both parts of each of the following classes: Organic Chemistry, General Chemistry, and Biology.

Experience

I scored a 29 (out of 30) on the DAT organic chemistry section and received an A in both organic chemistry I and II. I feel that I have a strong grasp of organic chemistry concepts and am able to present this information in a simple, straight-forward manner. After returning to school to become a dentist, I completed organic chemistry I and II at Temple University in the Fall 2016 and Spring 2017 semesters. My organic I professor noticed I was doing well in the class after the first exam and connected me with some struggling students in the class. I worked with them throughout both semesters of organic chemistry. All of the students I helped received a B- or higher in organic chemistry I. I really enjoyed helping these students and I hope to continue to help other students through organic chemistry. Organic chemistry is not as difficult as it is made out to be. By spending time learning mechanisms, I was able to succeed in organic chemistry with very little memorization and I believe that is the key to thriving in organic chemistry. I have a Microsoft Surface tablet with the ability to connect via Skype. This will allow me to share my screen and use the stylus and notepad to provide a clear method for showing concepts and reactions as if it were an in-person meeting.

Hobbies

I am a big-time sports fan who roots passionately for all of the Philadelphia sports teams. I also enjoy playing sports such as basketball, baseball, and golf. In addition to sports, I participate in many physical activities such as hiking, scuba diving, and weight lifting. I enjoy problem solving and I play many board games that require critical thinking (Settlers of Catan, etc.). I just applied to dental school and will be enrolling in the fall of 2018.
