About Penelope
I am a Biomedical Engineering major with a passion for making complex STEM subjects accessible. My academic rigor began early—I started taking college-level coursework as a sophomore in high school, which instilled in me the discipline required to succeed in high-stakes environments.
My subject matter expertise is extensive and interdisciplinary. I have completed six semesters of Chemistry and two semesters of Biology, along with the advanced Mathematics and Physics coursework required for engineering. Because of this background, I am comfortable tutoring across a wide variety of scientific disciplines, helping students connect the dots between concepts rather than just memorizing facts.
My Teaching Philosophy
I have extensive experience as a peer tutor. My approach is grounded in partnership and empathy. Having been a tutee myself, I know how intimidating it can be to say, "I don't understand." I prioritize building a relationship of trust where no question is considered "stupid."
I also specialize in adaptive learning strategies, particularly for students with ADHD. I understand that the standard way of teaching doesn't click for everyone. Whether you need help organizing your thoughts, breaking massive problems into small steps, or finding visual ways to understand abstract concepts, I am comfortable discussing and implementing alternative strategies that fit your specific learning style.
What to Expect
• Goal-Oriented Sessions: We will define what success looks like for you—whether that’s passing a test or mastering a specific concept.
• Patience & Clarity: I can explain the same concept in three different ways until it makes sense.
• Tech-Savvy Support: As an engineering student, I am comfortable with data and online tools to help facilitate our learning.

Chemistry & Biology Tutoring from a BME Major (ADHD-Friendly)
Are you or your student struggling to keep up in science or math classes? I can help.
As a Biomedical Engineering major with multiple semesters of Chemistry and Biology under my belt, as well as extensive SAT/ACT experience, I know the material inside and out. But more importantly, I know how to teach it.
Why choose me?
• I get it: I’ve been in tutoring myself. I know that success requires trust and patience, not just lectures.
• Adaptive Teaching: I am experienced in working with ADHD and neurodiverse learning styles. I don't just teach the textbook; I teach strategies that work for your brain.
