Bio
I have an inquisitive personality that enjoys figuring out solutions to problems. I am currently pursuing postgraduate research in chemical biology, with the goal of discovering new cancer therapies.
I was not a fast learner through my high school and undergraduate years and required more time to assimilate the information I got in the classroom. As a result, I discovered new ways of understanding information. This, I believe, has made me a patient person who is not in a rush to complete a task, but rather is focused on assisting the student in becoming a self-assured learner.

Reviews from others
“I was struggling to understand some experiment results from my Genetics module to complete my lab report. Grace was absolutely great in explaining the concepts, thus helping me understand where I was going wrong. I felt guided and was even given suggestions on how to make sure I excel on my assignment. We went through restriction endonuclease, plasmid vectors and PCR. My expectations were met. ”
