Hi! My name is Leila and I'm a senior majoring in nutrition and minoring in health and society. At the Learning Center, I work as a Peer Tutor in French, chemistry, and biology. My favorite part of being a tutor is the ability to empower students and remind them of their capability to learn and understand complex problems and concepts. As for me personally, I enjoy collecting rocks of various shapes, colors, and sizes, and I just got a new one from the beach! ⁠

New blog post! In our latest “How I Write and Learn” blog post, a peer tutor discusses her personal financial habits and offers tips for being a financially responsible college student.⁠
⁠
"I found myself becoming more disciplined with myself when I found more sneaky little habits that were adding up. For starters, I started waking up a little earlier to brew some coffee or tea and while I enjoyed my beverage, I had 20 minutes to look over a chemistry concept or finish a biology homework assignment. [...] In a sense, I found that time really was money, and when you make yourself a budget, and actually stick to it, other aspects in your life become more organized and focused."⁠
