Shelly
Certified Tutor
To briefly introduce myself, I have finished my doctoral work at Princeton University and started working as a postdoctoral fellow in Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in 2015.
I worked as a teaching assistant during my graduate years and gained an experience as a private tutor in high school biology.
Having studied molecular biology for more than 10 years, and having experience in teaching high school and college students, I am confident that my skills would be appreciated by my clients.
My fluency in Korean can also deliver academic assistance and preparation to Korean-American students as well.
