Hi!! I am a college student here at Saint Louis University I am a cellular/physiology biology pre-veterinary student. I have tutored children in high school and am able to help with homework assignments from elementary all the way up to advance chemistry, biology, maths, (algebra 1-2, pre-calculus, calculus) as well as english and history. I scored a 1360 on the SAT and a 30 on the ACT and can help with practice and study for standardized exams. I can work well with animals as I have helped my parents (who are both DVMs) in and out of the clinic. My little brother is autistic and I have helped care for him my whole life so I am patient and understanding with children who may have behavioral and or developmental disabilities. I have helped volunteer at a horse riding therapy for children with disabilities and love to watch them grow and Read more learn. My main goal is to help your family with your child(ren) and to help them and you to feel comfortable! I have babysat many time for family friends and feel confident in my ability to take care of you and your family.
