Banita G.
Private tutor in Nashville, TN
Education
I'm a recent graduate from Vanderbilt University. I graduated with a Bachelors in Chemistry with a 3.71 GPA. However, as a part of the College of Arts & Sciences, I was able to take a plethora of subjects ranging from English to Aztec history to Public Health to Inorganic Chemistry. My liberal arts background has given me a wide and diverse lens through which to analyze the world.
Experience
I've held various volunteer teaching positions. In high school, I spent 3 months as a full-time teacher at an underprivileged school in Kathmandu, Nepal. In this position, I thought kids from grades 2 through 12 as a jack-of-all trades teacher. I spent my time teaching English, History, Maths, Social Studies and more. The position was challenging but left me with a great appreciation for education and its importance. Throughout high school I tutored elementary and middle-school students in math, English, and art. I kept up my part-time tutoring in college where I volunteered in a club called Vanderbilt Student Volunteers for Science. In small groups of 3 to 4 college students, we helped 5th to 8th graders get excited about science through weekly interactive science experiments at metro Nashville schools. Relevant Classes I have taken: General Chemistry 1 and 2, Organic Chemistry 1 and 2, Inorganic Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Physics 1 and 2, Biochemistry, English literature and writing classes. Other items from my resume: - Currently, I work at a healthcare company where I rotate through departments. My rotations so far have been in Data Solutions and Finance where I've been challenged to step outside my comfort zone. - I fund raised and volunteered in Nepal during the summer following the Nepal 2015 earthquake.

Hobbies
My family and I are originally from Nepal so needless to say, I love to travel! I love to discover new things to do in Nashville and try to spend my weekends exploring local fairs or trying out a new restaurant!! I also enjoy reading and watching Netflix :) Nashville weather is beautiful so I try to take advantage of the warm weather by hiking or lounging around in parks.
