Hobbies
I am 22 years old and I plan on attending Medical School in the fall of 2017. Teaching and tutoring are interests that I have found extremely rewarding. My favorite aspect of tutoring is watching my students’ confidence grow as they realize that their performance depends on their effort and that if they assert themselves they can excel in any subject. Most of my free time is spent volunteering with healthcare organizations and studying spanish. I also love sports of all kinds, especially basketball and football. Once in a while I enjoy playing video games as well.
