The most effective way to pass science enthusiasm on to students is to relate academic content to real and everyday life, underscoring its importance and relevance to them personally, culturally and otherwise. In my experience teaching undergraduates thus far, our most spirited discussions took place when students shared incidents from outside of class that served as examples to support the academic content. I invite students to bolster or counter my lessons by providing their personal insights and applications both during class time and as part of assigned group work. This is part of my overall goal to facilitate the flow and exchange of information so that learning is not unidirectional. I provide excerpts from popular culture science writing or recent news pieces and organize smaller discussions so that students are able to share information with me as the professor but also, more importantly, with each other in these less formal lesson periods. These sessions enhance cognitive flexibility in the students and solicit practice defending and explaining the material. I find these are the moments when it is particularly important for me to pay attention and learn from, as well as adapt to, the needs of my students.

Perfect! Excellent excellent tutor! Im in the best of hands working with Kelly as I further my knowledge of Neuroscience!
Perfect! Highly recommend! Kelly is extremely knowledgeable and efficient. Got right to it and helped me tremendously! Frankly, I don't think she charges enough!
- Lori is an absolute pleasure to work with! Lori is always prepared and present in our meetings, and stays super in touch as the need for check-ins arise. Her brain is on fire, and she is empowered to use research to impact young people's lives.Kelly's response :
Perfect! Kelly is always well-prepared for our sessions which makes all the difference. She has in-depth knowledge of Biology and is a great teacher. I am now understanding the material and am getting A's on my tests! Kelly is easy to work with and has a flexible schedule. I highly recommend her!
- Helena is so easy to work with and always very accommodating. I genuinely appreciate her partnership in sharing text materials as well as her commitment to timely communication. Because of this, I'm able to be as prepared for the tutoring session as possible and it's been a pleasure each and every time.Kelly's response :
Perfect! Kelly is wonderful! She is always prepared and teaches the material in a way that my daughter can internalize. And this is Life Sciences 7A at UCLA so it's not an easy course. We have been extremely happy with Kelly and have been working with her all semester!
- David's child always sent questions/content in advance allowing me to prepare. This ensured each hour was very efficient. In addition, the student and I often learned from each other as we wrestled with harder/less familiar content making the sessions super enjoyable!Kelly's response :

Kelly was an exception tutor during our time together. I appreciated her thoughtfulness, thoroughness, and excitement with the neuroscience materials. I am a Bioinformatics PhD student with little to no Neuro background and wanted a crash course in the subject so that I may fine-tune my research into more interesting avenues. Thanks to Kelly's attentiveness to my interests and vast wealth of knowledge, I was able to leave each session feeling more capable to perform high quality research once I was on my own. I really appreciated the time we had together and know that the next person will as well!
