Elina Rezaei-Yazdi
Hey! my name is Elina and I'm in my second year of Honours Life Sciences. I'm so excited to be an MSS tutor and help make the struggles of university a little easier to deal with! I love to study subjects like anatomy, biology, and psychology, but my main passion is anything chemistry related. That being said, I plan to pursue a career in health care, a field I've been drawn to since I can remember. In my free time, I love to listen to music (my favourite artist is the weeknd), go out with friends, and exercise. I'm also super interested in things like fashion, beauty, and lifestyle. Feel free to reach out to me to help you reach your academic goals!

Preferred Teaching Style: I believe that if a student is struggling to learn certain topics, the problem might be that they don't have a complete understanding of the basic/foundational material. Thus, I like to build up knowledge by reviewing and/or re-teaching the basics (if needed), before jumping into harder topics. When teaching, I like to focus on understanding. I use simple terms along visual aids to explain things, and I like to ask the students questions during my explanation, so that they can build on their own knowledge and reach conclusions themselves. This way, students have a full understanding of material, and are able to apply their knowledge when it comes to exams. I'm also very question-oriented when it comes to understanding. If students have any questions that may go beyond the things they learn, but helps them understand the material, I'm happy to answer them!
