About the Tutors

I am a first-year student on the pre-med track at Cornell University majoring in Global & Public Health Sciences and a minor in Business for Life Sciences. I enjoy reading nonfiction and journal articles, taking notes on the world around me, playing the flute, and solving Fermi problems while running outside.

View Caroline G's Profile

I'm a student and I am looking forward to learning new things beyond school. I am enrolled in an excellent music program where I learn to play the keyboard/piano. I'm a polyglot (7 languages known). I also love writing poetry, dramas/plays and short stories. I also like Computer Science and I'm familiar with HTML/CSS, Python, C & C++. I like to work on graphic designing in my free time. I like to read novels and watch Netflix. I'm excited to help you with subjects which I'm good at.
