Hobbies
A Studio Art and Psychology double major as an undergraduate, I believe that different and creative learning styles must be used for each student. I recently completed the pre-medical curriculum in a post-baccalaureate program and understand that each student will employ a unique learning style when it comes to traditional classroom learning. Every student has the right to have their potential recognized and by working with student to target frustrations and problem areas, students learn what they can accomplish by building confidence and mastering the material.
