Courtney M.
Private tutor in Baltimore, MD
Education
I am currently starting my 3rd year as a PhD student studying Cellular and Molecular Physiology at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. I graduated with Distinction from Worcester Polytechnic Institute in 2014 with a B.Sc. in Biochemistry. My academic interests and strengths have always been at the intersection of biology and chemistry, with a focus on biochemical processes in the cell.
Experience
I have had some experience with casual tutoring in high school and am currently a Peer Mentor for new graduate students entering the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. I have an interest in teaching science, and I believe that tutoring is one of the best ways I can serve my community.

Hobbies
Outside of my academic studies, I like to play collectible card and board games. I enjoy reading science fiction and fantasy novels, and I am an avid fan of J.R.R. Tolkien and the Lord of the Rings. I have a keen interest in cooking, especially in making foods from scratch or from as small ingredients as possible (i.e. making my own breads, using garden-grown foods, etc.)
