À propos
Hi! I'm Katie, and I teach psychology, biology, and neuroscience here on TutorOcean and sometimes on Upwork. I offer free 15 minute sessions if you want to try me out.
Where did you go to school?
I'm currently master's student at Georgia Southern, getting a degree in Psychology with an experimental focus. I recently graduated from Georgia State University with a 3.9 (unweighted) GPA. I received a B.S in Psychology and a minor in neuroscience.
Do you have any teaching exeperince?
Yes!
During my first year at Georgia Southern, I was the TA responsible for teaching the biomechanical analysis of movement lab course. The course was a bit outside my major, but the lab was mostly teaching students how to use excel to make graphs, something I had experience with from my undergrad stats classes.
When I was at Georgia State, I was a an SI Leader, which is a type of undergrad TA for courses with a higher than average fail rate. I ran twice a week additional lecture sections for Introductory Biology students for two semesters.
I also have experience as a tour guide at Science Gallery Atlanta, a combination science museum and art gallery. I worked there for two exhibits. My first was Hooked, which was on addition and it's effects on the greater community. My second exhibit I worked on was Justice, which focused on how economics, race, gender, sexual orientation, and other aspects of identity can impact justice in the U.S.
Wait, you said neuroscience?
Psychology is my major, so it is what I am most qualified for, but I have taken 15 credit hours of neuroscience classes at Georgia State to get my minor in neuroscience. I cannot tutor you on higher level neuroscience classes, but intro to neuroscience, principles of neuroscience, and drugs and behavior are courses I am qualified to teach.

I was a Mediator for Hooked: When Want Becomes Need, Science Gallery Altanta's first exhibition. I was also a mediator for Justice, the second exhibition. My duties included talking to guests about the exhibits and helping to educate the public about the intersectionality of justice topics. For example, one of our exhibits was about environmental racism, or how city planners and companies are able to push landfills, power plants, and other sources of air pollution into majority black communities.
