Supplemental Workshop Leader
Cal Poly State University
Jul 2012 - Jun 2014 (1 year 11 months)
During the later half of my time in undergrad, I worked part time as a Supplemental Workshop Leader for an academic skills program known as Supplemental Workshops in Science. The program granted students the opportunity to build and develop the knowledge they gained in Chemistry, Biology, and Physics courses through twice a week workshops, led by my colleagues and I.
My goal was not only to educate students on these topics further, but to also help them reinforce the importance of what they were learning with respect to their major.
