Hi everyone! My name is Emma and I am a Peer Tutor here at the Learning Center. I am a junior double-majoring in Economics and Political Science with a minor in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE). I tutor various courses including economics, statistics, and Spanish. My favorite part of tutoring is helping students build confidence as they work through challenging concepts and watching them succeed in their classes. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy reading, figure skating, and spending time with friends. I can't wait to meet you at the Learning Center!⁠

“Most students understand that clinical hours are required for medical school. What many don’t realize is how much those hours shape the kind of physician you become, long before you ever apply. Coursework teaches you what medicine is. Research teaches you how knowledge is generated. Leadership teaches you how to work with people. Clinical experience teaches you whether you actually want to practice medicine.”⁠
