Brian C.

Private tutor in Los Angeles, CA

Education

B.A. Diplomacy and World Affairs (Requirements Completed in May, 2015) - Occidental College; Los Angeles, CA B.A. Biology, focus in Cell and Molecular Biology (In Progress, Expected Completion in December, 2015) - Occidental College; Los Angeles, CA High School Diploma (June, 2011) - Acalanes High School; Lafayette, CA Current senior at Occidental College in Eagle Rock. Double majoring in Biology with a focus in Molecular and Cellular Biology, and in Diplomacy and World Affairs (Oxy's take on International Relations). I'm very passionate about learning, and sharing my knowledge in a way that is interesting and exciting to learn it!

Experience

-Developmental Biology (additionally familiar with key model organisms and their laboratory maintenance) -Biochemistry (and Lab Technique) -Molecular Biology -Molecular Genetics/Genetics -Biotechnology and Bioengineering -Cell/Molecular Biology Laboratory Technique -Gene therapy, tissue regeneration, next-generation drug and bio-therapies -Clinical Research Oncology and Oncogenetics My politics and economics skill set comes from my already-completed Diplomacy major. I was a history buff in high school and took advantage of the advanced placement history courses my school offered. This contributed to my interest in modern day international politics and economics. I am nearly fluent in Spanish. I correctly employ each of the language's grammatical and syntactical rules, and its special cases. My vocabulary is large, but is insufficient for me to comfortably claim true fluency. I am very patient and sensitive towards others, and confident in my abilities. I treat every student as a peer, because I honestly believe that the commensurate level of respect fosters a more immersive engagement with the material. I am also clear in my speech (both in my enunciation and in the meaning of my words). Where I shine is in my incomparable passion for science. On a daily basis, I exercise my rational understanding of the world by quizzing myself on the countless ways in which physical and chemical processes are shaping the outcomes of observed events. I solve these questions by using the knowledge that I have accumulated through my rounded science education and my internship at a well-known cancer research organization. I always seek to supplement holes in my knowledge with the most current multidisciplinary peer-reviewed research. I think, organize, and present information through versatile media, and can always find a way to digest complex concepts into their simple and unthreatening parts. I sincerely dream of a world in which more people share my enthusiasm for expansive scientific understanding. I sincerely believe that while they are too commonly taught in an overly structured and non-engaging way, the biological sciences maintain an immense and unrealized capacity to foster deeper widespread appreciation for the combined chemistry, physics, and math that collectively comprise this reality. The key to unlocking the individual drive to engage and advance in multidisciplinary science is vested in facilitating a student's sentimental association to scientific curiosity. Inspiring this curiosity is easy when otherwise boring and apparently irrelevant foundational chemical and physical laws/concepts are briefly but repeatedly contextualized (on a comparative case basis) within the purview of groundbreaking contemporary research and commercial applications. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any and all inquiries! Rates are entirely negotiable.
