About Krista

Experience: 1 yr

I have a PhD in genetics and two years of experience teaching and tutoring college students. I also have a long history of work with learners of various ages from running events with girl scouts and school affiliated aftercare programs. I focus on building confidence and fostering a genuine love for learning rather than simple memorization. I help students master Math, English, Science, and Test Preparation by breaking complex problems into manageable steps. By actively listening and observing how you interact with new material, I adapt my methods to suit your unique needs. I believe open communication is essential to building the trust required for academic growth. Whether we meet at your home, the library, or a center, I am committed to developing your critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Seeing your confidence grow as you master new challenges is the most rewarding part of my work, and I look forward to supporting your success journey.
