Hello! My name is Yejin (I also go by Jinny), and I’m from Provo, Utah. I graduated from Princeton University with a degree in Chemistry. In the future, I’m hoping to get into med school. To explore my interests, I’ve worked as a medical assistant and a pharmacy technician.
As the oldest of six kids, I’ve been around children my whole life. I started babysitting at a young age, and that soon turned into tutoring. I have experience with a variety of kids, ranging anywhere from preschool to high school students, teaching Korean, English, French, math, science, piano, and music theory. I’ve been a teacher’s assistant at summer math camps and first-grade classrooms and led a MathCounts team for a while. My strongest suit is math, but I also enjoy teaching chemistry.
